It guides users in defining how their research will effect positive change, identifying potential beneficiaries, and strategizing actionable steps to achieve desired outcomes. The framework also stresses the importance of acknowledging and mitigating project risks, articulating underlying assumptions, and considering the counterfactual scenario – what might occur in the absence of the proposed research. The document serves as a practical tool for researchers and program managers to ensure their initiatives are well-defined, impactful, and strategically aligned with overarching goals, fostering a deeper understanding of the causal links between research activities and societal benefits.","Impact Statement: Your impact statement explains the significance of the work programme.  It can highlight how the work will make a difference in the lives of people, communities and the environment.\nTheory of Change Diagram– EXAMPLE\nPathway: The pathways to impact encourages you to think about what can be done to ensure your research makes a difference.  Over the life of your project, who could potentially benefit from your research and what can you do to help make this happen?\nPARTICIPATION: Who do we need to reach across the various parts of the pathway?\nWho we need to reach across the various parts of the logic?\nGovernment services are improved [increasing their efficiency and/or effectiveness]\nList the participants.
