Engaging with policy without a clear plan often leads to missed opportunities and wasted effort.

This practical workshop helps you develop a strategic, responsible approach to policy engagement. You will set clear objectives, map and prioritize key external participants using the 3i (interest, influence, impact) framework, and learn how to adapt to 'policy windows' when they arise. You will also explore risk management and ways to balance policy work with other commitments.

What you’ll walk away with

  • Clear motivations for engaging with policy
  • Realistic goals for policy, evidence use, and impact
  • An agile approach to respond to policy opportunities
  • A prioritized 3i analysis of external decision makers for one of your projects
  • Strategies to manage risk in policy engagement

Your booking includes

  • Pre-workshop scoping call to tailor delivery to your team
  • Practical worksheets and templates for each participant
  • Take-home framework cards and reference material
