Research Outputs and Dissemination

Formal outputs from the research will be generated at two main stages, i.e. after the survey stage II and after the interview data collection are completed in Stage IV. Preliminary findings generated from the survey stage are planned to be presented at the 13th International Research Symposium for Public Management (IRSPM) * in Copenhagen Business School, Denmark in April 2009 and the 5th Social Enterprise Research Conference at London South Bank University in June 2009; while the overall findings will be presented at the European Group of Public Administration conference in September 2009 or the British Academy of Management (BAM) Conference held in the same month.

Publication of the research and its findings to academic audiences will follow, specifically in the Nonprofit and Voluntary Sector Quarterly, Social Enterprise Journal, British Journal of Management and Public Policy and Management, and International Journal of Public Administration. Disseminate will also be to targeted practitioner/policy decision-makers involved in third sector policy/management and social enterprises via networks, e.g. the NCVO, the Third Sector, WCVA and the Welsh Assembly Government’s Research Unit.
