The report HE commissioned Worcestershire Archive and Archaeology Service on Assessing the Value of Community Generated Research is out now and is available from the HE website
The report has a number of very interesting conclusions and recommendations for the potential for community research to enhance HERs and Research Frameworks – and has highlighted interesting trends influencing the outputs of community research associated with the impact of external funding and professional advice. I know a number of the findings are of great interest to the newly reconvened Community and Voluntary SIG.
