RELU Work Shadowing and Visiting Fellowship Scheme

Aims: The scheme comprises two strands. Work Shadowing aims to introduce RELU research staff to the action-contexts in which their research may be used. These contexts may be commercial organisations, voluntary bodies or public agencies. Visiting Fellowships aim to allow policy makers and practitioners from the commercial, voluntary or public sector to visit a RELU research team or cluster of teams with a view to exploring the implications of the research for their work and to raising awareness of their interests among the researchers. A focus of both strands is to encourage bespoke dissemination activities and materials.
