Measuring research impact and engagement is a much debated topic in
the UK and internationally. This book is the first to provide a
critical review of the research impact agenda, situating it within
international efforts to improve research utilisation. Using
empirical data, it discusses research impact tools and processes
for key groups such as academics, research funders, 'knowledge
brokers' and research users, and considers the challenges and
consequences of incentivising and rewarding particular
articulations of research impact. It draws on wide ranging
qualitative data, combined with theories about the science-policy
interplay and audit regimes to suggest ways to improve research
impact.

This open access book conceptualises the Sustainable Development
Goals as epistemic infrastructures that connect numbers, networks
and governing paradigms.The book approaches quantification not
merely as a tool for governing, but rather as a broader epistemic
system through which global public policy is produced. This book
focuses on the role of international organisations in shaping and
implementing the 2030 Agenda and demonstrates how the SDGs have
transformed and accelerated trends in quantification.
