Join us in person for a hands-on session where we'll dive into how to embed impacts seamlessly into your interdisciplinary projects. It is an internal event open for all BCU staff and doctoral researchers. Whether you're a seasoned researcher or just curious, discover cool ways to document your work's influence across fields and make your results speak louder. Let’s learn together and boost the real-world value of your research! Although the focus in on urban futures, the knowledge could apply to wider disciplines and fields.
