| Note(s) | "In 2006 and 2007, SSHRC funded a number of research projects as a special SSHRC President's initiative to investigate the impacts of research with a particular interest in the impacts of social sciences, humanities and arts research. This report presents some background behind the funding of 17 research projects but focuses mainly on the findings of the research. There is an increasing demand for an accounting of research expenditures with measures of what nations receive in return for dollars spent. Governments around the world are initiating systems for the governance of their science system. In the light of this, it is important to fund research on issues regarding the research impacts."--Page 6 of 123, Preface. |
