Resources for ResearchersÂ
Want your research to change the world? Then you’ll have to bridge the gap between research and practice. Partially, that means translating your findings into language managers can understand and disseminating your research effectively. But it’s also about the knowledge production process — integrating academic and practitioner knowledge for unique insights.
These NBS resources show how academics can create more impact with their research, with an emphasis on co-creating knowledge with practitioners.
We also publish a monthly compilation of all business sustainability articles published in Financial Times Top 50 journals.
