The Researcher Development Concordat Strategy Group has launched a sector-wide survey to gather views on the future priorities of the Researcher Development Concordat. The survey invites contributions from researchers, research managers, and colleagues working in research professional services across UK higher education.
The Concordat, based on the principles of Environment & Culture, Employment, and Professional & Career Development, continues to play an important role in supporting a positive research culture and improving conditions for researchers.
As part of the ongoing review, the Strategy Group is seeking to identify where the Concordat should focus its efforts in the next phase of its work.
Professor Richard Emes, Chair of the Researcher Development Concordat Strategy Group, said:
“We hope to hear from a diverse range of voices, including active researchers themselves and those who manage research in our organisations. The information collected will be used to shape the next phase of the researcher concordat work to support research excellence in the UK.”
The Strategy Group encourages colleagues across the sector to take part and share the survey within their networks. Gathering insights from a broad community will help ensure the Concordat continues to reflect the needs and priorities of those involved in research.
