Research is only useful if it leads to meaningful change. So, when assessing what works to end violence against women and violence against girls, how can we ensure research sparks action?

This is called research uptake, or research for impact, and is a process that’s too often neglected. Despite its undeniable importance, it's often poorly funded, difficult to measure and there’s little guidance on how to achieve it.

In this episode we find out how to address these issues, and discover why it needs to be made a top priority in all research projects. We find out what makes an effective research for impact programme, hearing lessons learnt from the What Works To Prevent Violence Against Women and Girls’ programme. And we meet a researcher whose project serves as a shining example of how it can be done positively.

Our guests are:

Diana Arango, Senior Gender-Based Violence and Development Specialist, World Bank Group

Wilson Hernández Breña, Adjunct Researcher, Group for the Analysis of Development (GRADE) from Peru

Leane Ramsoomar, Public Health Researcher & Research Uptake Specialist, Gender and Health Research Unit, South African Medical Research Council

Your hosts are:

Elizabeth Dartnall, Executive Director, SVRI

Angelica Pino, Grants Manager and Capacity Strengthening Specialist, SVRI
