Abstract

Charities and NGOs are primary users of academic research, playing a significant role in the social impact of research. Duncan Green, Senior Strategic Advisor for Oxfam GB, suggests that researchers and their funders look to the outcome-oriented framework popular among development organisations called ‘theories of change’ to bolster the two-way relationship between academics and NGOs in order to maximize social impact.
