Hello everyone,
<br>
<br>Assessing the impact of research has many challenges in common with impact
<br>assessments for other kinds of activities. In this week's blog post, we
<br>analyze two online portals for tracking government impacts.
<br>
<br>The two major hurdles for these initiatives are ones that plague research
<br>impact evaluation too: selecting a meaningful indicator to track the desired
<br>impact, and telling a compelling story about how activities contributed to
<br>moving the needle on that indicator (when it moves at all).
<br>

<br>
<br>With best wishes,
<br>
