The realities of policy engagement are best understood through experience. The Policy Hub offers practical guidance on how to get research in front of policymakers. This includes the importance of building a profile amongst policy actors, and how to build a reputation as a trusted and reliable source of evidence. It also helps with small, but important, details, such as how to address letters to parliamentarians and where to find their contact information.
One of the best and most direct ways to rcs data malaysia ensure research informs and shapes policymaking is through written evidence submissions to Parliamentary committee inquiries. However, the format that committees request differs in several ways from academic papers or policy briefings. For that reason, we have created an interactive written evidence submission form where you can enter your own information and research findings to receive a fully formatted document, specifically tailored and ready to submit to a parliamentary committee inquiry.

The Policy Hub is an evolving resource and we already have some exciting ideas for additions and improvements. But we want to be guided by feedback and would greatly appreciate input on what additions would be most valuable to the research community. If you have any suggestions of how the Policy Hub could improve, please get in touch.
