The Department of Further and Higher Education, Research, Innovation and Science (DFHERIS) published its Statement of Research Priorities for 2023 - 2024 in July 2023. This statement highlighted the research intent and priorities of the Department as they relate to evidence for tertiary sector policy and operations.
The Department is now seeking to identify key research activity and expertise which may be relevant to policy development and decision making in the published areas of activity. Policy development can take place along different timelines and information is required at different times and at different levels. It is intended to utilise submitted evidence to support relationship building with active researchers and potential knowledge brokerage activity. The timing and extent of this activity is necessarily on an as-needed basis linked to progress on policy priorities and activity and the Department is unable to commit to a defined work programme or timeline at this point.
The Evidence for Policy Unit within DFHERIS remains open for submissions on an ongoing basis, however this initial call for evidence will inform the development of a repository of evidence and expertise as a foundation for ongoing interaction with the research sector into the future. The Department will hold the information submitted, including the relevant contact details of individuals, for potential future contact and follow-up subject to the relevant permissions.
The areas of interest set out in the July 2023 paper have been supplemented by two additional areas (i) the contribution of the research and innovation sector to the State (ii) opportunity for researchers to provide learnings from outside the key areas through which unique policy perspectives may be drawn.
Areas of interest:
Submissions are invited from both early career and experienced researchers, both on work underway and on relevant published literature. In order to be included in the Department’s evidence base, researchers must be linked to a public or private research performing organisation.
The Department recognises also that the scope of this call for evidence is wide and that submissions on areas of interest may arise from broad research specialisms.
Further details on the call are set out in the document.
