LSSI Impact Acceleration Account Showcase - Impact Showcase
The Leeds Social Sciences Institute (LSSI) Impact Acceleration Account Showcase was held on 21st February 2018. The LSSI has supported over 40 impact-related projects through its Impact Acceleration Account (IAA), which is funded by the University and aligned to the ESRC IAA. The objective of this event was to provide a forum to showcase the breadth and depth of the impact that social sciences research focused on and to celebrate the success of impact projects supported through the LSSI IAA. The event hoped to strengthen and build on existing relationships and to facilitate new connections with external partners including businesses, policymakers, practitioners and third sector organisations across the Leeds City Region – notably with regard to the opportunities presented by the Industrial Strategy Challenge Fund. Following the Welcome address by Professor Lisa Roberts, Deputy Vice Chancellor for Research and Innovation, and an Introduction to the event by Professor Jeremy Higham, Executive Dean for Education, the Impact Showcase featured presentations by: Professor Andy Gouldson (University of Leeds) and Dr Tom Knowland (Leeds City Council) on ‘The Leeds Climate Commission’ Dr Hayley Davies (University of Leeds) on ‘Creating Impact through Animations with Safeguarding Messages for Children’ and Professor Cristina Leston Bandeira (University of Leeds) and Kate Anderson (Petitions Committee, Houses of Parliament) on ‘The Petitions Committee’
