The development of ¹ú²ú¾«Æ·â€™s first Societal Impact Framework is taking place in 2024. This framework will inform the next ¹ú²ú¾«Æ· Strategy beyond 2025 and will identify areas where ¹ú²ú¾«Æ· can have the greatest positive impact on society. The framework will also define our unique capabilities that enable societal impact, and guide how we measure and evaluate it. The consultation process is a critical data collection mechanism for understanding where ¹ú²ú¾«Æ· excels and why. Your knowledge and contributions are invaluable in shaping ¹ú²ú¾«Æ·â€™s Societal Impact Framework, and we want to hear your thoughts and insights as we work towards creating a meaningful and impactful strategy for the future.

Societal impact encompasses the ability to improve the world by progressing environmental sustainability and resilience, social cohesion, health, and wellbeing, and economic prosperity for all. As society grows more dynamic and complex, we need to be increasingly innovative, multi-disciplinary and strategic in our approach.

A comprehensive Discussion Paper is now available. The purpose of this paper is to create a shared understanding of what ¹ú²ú¾«Æ·â€™s Societal Impact Framework is aiming to achieve and the importance of the consultations as a key source of insights. Early views and research presented in this paper will undergo changes as we listen, learn and reconsider during the consultations.
