Networks of Expertise and Evidence for Public Policy Annual Report 2015

The policy challenges facing our world today demand ever-greater foresight,ingenuity and a willingness to collaborate across sectors. As this report illustrates,the Centre for Science and Policy has been helping its network to navigatechallenges from climate resilience to new forms of healthcare; from nationalsecurity to shaping innovation in the public interest.

The Centre for Science and Policy in 2015

The maturity of CSaP’s unique network of academics

and policy makers is demonstrated by the breadth

and depth of our work during 2015. Our network

now encompasses over 200 Fellows and more than

1100 researchers and, during the year, we welcomed

more than 2500 participants to 43 events.

These achievements are testimony to the vision of

David Cleevely, who served as CSaP's founding

director until 2015. When David accepted the

invitation to establish the Centre more than seven

years ago, he brought a wealth of experience from

his work as an entrepreneur, angel investor and

government adviser. He established CSaP with

three founding principles that have shaped our

development:

• an attention to the questions and constraints of

policy professionals, in other words a focus on

the ‘demand-side’;

• a commitment to fostering networks based on

mutual understanding, respect and trust, and

establishing the conditions for collaboration;

• a willingness to experiment, learn and adapt.

As he moves on to chair CSaP’s Advisory Council, I

would like to express my gratitude to David for his

inspirational work in founding the Centre.

In 2016, a year set to be every bit as challenging for

governments as 2015 has been, CSaP’s role in

brokering links between research and policy will be

more important than ever. The Policy Fellowships

programme will remain at the core of our activities,

and we will look for new ways to increase the value

of the network – particularly through a new pilot

scheme extending the Fellowships programme to a

network of UK universities. This will enable us to

strengthen links between universities and broaden

the academic resources in the network.

I am particularly looking forward to working with

our network of affiliate universities to strengthen

links between government and academia at EU,

UK, devolved and local levels. In 2016, we will

continue to promote our unique brand of creative

collaboration, leading to fresh insights and a

growing appetite for engagement between the

research and policy worlds.

Dr Robert DoubledayExecutive DirectorCentre for Science and Policy

“Over the seven years since its launch, the Centre for Science

and Policy has pioneered new ways of bringing academia and

government together to tackle policy challenges. CSaP has

successfully promoted long-term thinking and more robust

networks of expertise and evidence for public policy.

2015 is the year in which the Centre came of age. Having

served as its founding director from 2009 to 2015, I am

delighted CSaP is playing a central role in supporting the

University’s mission, and that the Centre is in the excellent

hands of a new management board. I am immensely proud

of everything CSaP has achieved to date.

I look forward to contributing further to CSaP through

continuing to meet Policy Fellows, participating in our events

and chairing the newly constituted Advisory Council, which

will play a key role in shaping the Centre’s strategy.”

Dr David Cleevely CBE FREng Chair, CSaP Advisory Council

Over the five years since its launch in 2011, the Policy Fellowship has broughtmore than 200 influential policy makers from government, industry and the thirdsector to Cambridge to build networks and working relationships with academics.

Policy Fellowships Programme

Our 200-plus Fellows have benefited from over 5750

face-to-face introductions through the Fellowship

process, which has now reached more than 1100

academics, researchers and other experts.

During 2015, 35 new Policy Fellows and Junior

Policy Fellows, and 9 new Policy Leaders Fellows,

were elected, between them making more than

1300 connections with over 500 experts in the

course of the year. All three termly elections were

again oversubscribed.

The Fellowship continues to be recognised across

the University as the go-to network to connect

research with the policy world. The Fellows – and

the wider network of policy makers who can be

reached through them – represent a uniquely

valuable resource to Cambridge’s academics,

whether they are convening workshops, seeking

expert speakers, or identifying the potential

beneficiaries of research.

The value of this approach is increasingly being

recognised by other leading academic institutions

in the UK and elsewhere in Europe. In 2015, CSaP

launched an affiliation scheme with UK higher

education institutions; the CSaP Affiliate Network

extends the benefits of our Policy Fellowships

programme to other universities, and enhances

Policy Fellows’ access to world-leading researchers.

“Governments frequently deal with problems that border on theimpossible – or are impossible – and need what help they can get,particularly by way of greater understanding and better analysis. Itfrequently strikes me that Cambridge is a huge reservoir of knowledgeand would benefit both itself and the wider community if it could makesome of it available to government. The sheer energy and intelligence

which Policy Leaders Fellows have generated in their discussions with academicshas confirmed the value of such a dialogue and has been immensely rewarding.”Lord Wilson of Dinton, Chair of the Policy Leaders Programme

Policy Workshops

Our policy workshops help researchers at Cambridge

consider and realise the potential policy impacts of

their work and provide decision makers in

government with an opportunity to test and shape

their thinking on a range of policy issues.

In 2015 we held seven policy workshops which

addressed topics such as the economic impact of

health research, the benefits of play in middle

childhood and the Strategic Defence and Security

Review (see the “spotlight” sections for more details).

Annual Conference: How can government make

better use of expertise and evidence from the

humanities?

Our fourth annual conference explored opportunities

for improving the way government makes use of

expertise from the humanities. Working in partnership

with the British Academy, we invited historians,

philosophers, artists, anthropologists, classicists and

financial experts to present examples of the

significant contribution these disciplines have made

to public policy.

Statesmanship in a scientific age

As part of the Churchill 21st Century Leadership

Programme, CSaP teamed up with Churchill

College, Cambridge to organise a lecture and

professional development workshop, at which

early-career civil servants and researchers worked

together to explore approaches to successful

evidence-informed policy making.

“There is a crucial role for humanitiesresearch and evidence in policydevelopment – from providing lessonsfrom history to ethical analyses ofcomplex challenges. CSaP’s conferencehelped to turn the spotlight on thisvaluable input.”Alun EvansChief Executive and Secretary of the British Academy

Internships

In 2015 we hosted seven PhD students from the

universities of Bristol, Cambridge, Durham and

Manchester through the RCUK policy internships

scheme and the ESRC Doctoral Training Centre at

Cambridge.

Internships at CSaP offer a unique career

development opportunity, giving researchers the

skills and confidence to work outside their own area

of expertise, and as part of a team.

Our interns this year organised and took part in

policy workshops, wrote and edited policy reports

for non-expert audiences, and met with Policy

Fellows to learn about the value of building

connections between government and academia.

Interns in 2015

• Sarah Connors, University of Cambridge

(NERC)

• Nick Jones, University of Cambridge

(ESRC Doctoral Training Centre)

• Matthew McGuire, University of Cambridge

(ESRC Doctoral Training Centre)

• Leanne Melbourne, University of Bristol (NERC)

• Natalie Miazga, University of Manchester

(BBSRC)

• Tom Rodger, Durham University (AHRC)

• Matt Wright, Durham University (AHRC)

At the end of three months, interns will have gained

and developed new skills in organisation,

communication and working collaboratively, as well

as a much better understanding of the relationship

between research, evidence and policy making.

CSaP works with strategic research initiatives and departments at the Universityof Cambridge to provide opportunities for PhD students and postdocs tounderstand the importance of their research to policy.

Professional Development

Professional Development Workshops

CSaP’s Professional Development Workshops

provide early-career policy professionals and

researchers with an insight into the role of expertise

and evidence in policy making.

In 2015 we held three workshops bringing together

more than 100 researchers and civil servants.

Topics included: science and 21st century

leadership; how big data is being used to improve

public policy and services; and linking transport,

health and well-being.

Secondments

Three years ago, CSaP introduced a policy placement

scheme for early-career researchers at Cambridge

to take up secondments in government. To date,

we have placed 12 researchers into the Department

for Business, Innovation and Skills (BIS).

This year, five researchers worked on a range of

projects in BIS from preparing for the Spending

Review to providing support to the Dame Ann

Dowling Review, which examined how government

could support the development of more effective

collaboration between businesses and university

researchers in the UK.

Secondees in 2015

• Dr Heather Blackmore (MRC Institute of

Metabolic Science)

• Paul Clarkson (Dept of Chemistry)

• Dr Karthik Depuru Mohan (Dept of Engineering)

• Dr Charlotte Lee (Dept of German & Dutch)

• Jacquelyne Poon (Dept of Plant Sciences)

“The internship has been an extremelyvaluable experience that has allowedme to demonstrate transferable skills ina working environment. I now have amuch better understanding of howscience translates into policy but alsoof how important CSaP’s role is inbridging the gap between governmentand research.”Natalie MiazgaBBSRC-funded Policy Intern

“Ensuring that scientists setting out ontheir careers understand the policychallenges, as well as their science, ishugely important.”Professor Dame Athene Donald Master of Churchill College, Cambridge

Climate Change Risk Assessment Project

CSaP was commissioned by the UK’s Foreign and

Commonwealth Office (FCO) to edit a collection of

essays that illustrated the links between climate

change risk assessment and policy making on

mitigation. The essays were written by leading

climate scientists from (among others) the Met

Office Hadley Centre, the Potsdam Institute, and

the Harvard University Centre for the Environment.

While the challenges facing governments today place ever-increasing demandson scientific advice, there is also a widening appreciation of the complexity ofrelations between science and politics.

Research

Pathways to Impact

CSaP helps researchers at Cambridge to apply for

funding from the Research Councils and elsewhere

by designing policy-related knowledge exchange

activities. In 2015 CSaP contributed to 18

proposals valued at £14.5m, covering topics such

as the education of women in India, the internet of

things, ideas of consent, the national grid, genomic

licensing and comparative EU land law.

Our workshops and Policy Fellowships can be

tailored to support the policy engagement of

particular research projects. CSaP’s tried and

tested approaches can help ensure research is

effectively connected to live policy problems.

Future Directions for Scientific Advice

in Europe

CSaP published a collection of essays edited by

Robert Doubleday (CSaP) and James Wilsdon

(University of Sussex), and funded by the Mercator

Foundation and the European Commission. The

collection was launched in Brussels in April and

was the focus of a meeting in Berlin in June.

“CSaP provided invaluable support formy application for a major researchgrant on multilingualism. In particular itoffered advice on impact and policyissues and put me in touch with therelevant civil servants in Whitehall.”Wendy Ayres BennettProfessor of French Philology and Linguistics

“A debate on the ways in which sciencecan and should shape policy in the EUand its governance structures led to acollection of essays … both the debateand the publication have helped toshape how policy makers think aboutscientific advice in the EU.”Robert MadelinSenior Adviser for Innovation, European Commission

“CSaP’s work editing our riskassessment report was invaluable –they helped translate the complexscientific information into languagethat policy makers could easilyunderstand, which helped hugely ingetting the report’s message across.”Simon SharpeHead of Climate Risk Team, Science, Innovation andClimate Department, FC0

SPOTLIGHT ON | CLIMATE & CITIES

A collaboration with the Cambridge Forum

for Sustainability and the Environment led

to the publication of a policy briefing on

Resilient Cities. The briefing was launched

at an event hosted by the European Bank

for Reconstruction and Development

(EBRD) in January.

Building on the success of this collaboration,

CSaP and the Forum joined forces again to

lead one of six Foresight Future of Cities

projects – Visions of Cambridge in 2065 –

a collection of 24 visions from city and

county-level policy makers, researchers,

and also people who live and work locally.

In addition, Visiting Research Fellow

Professor Charles Kennel (UCSD) returned

to Cambridge in early 2015 to deliver a series

of seminars on climate and sustainability.

Katrina Williams leads on internationalscience and resilience in the Department forEnergy and Climate Change (DECC). Havingworked in both Defra and DECC in recentyears, issues such as Bovine TB, neo-

nicotinoids in pesticides, and fracking have all at various pointscome within her purview.

CONNECTIONS

During her Policy LeadersFellowship, Katrina met withresearchers from Engineering,Chemistry and Judge BusinessSchool on issues ranging fromenergy policy to behaviourchange. A roundtable discussionon the intelligent use of modelling in government convenedexperts, including Dr Chris Hope, Reader in Policy Modelling atCambridge; Charlene Rohr, Director of Choice Modelling andValuation at RAND Europe; and Professor Sir DavidSpiegelhalter, Winton Professor of the Public Understanding ofRisk at Cambridge.

OU TCOME

Katrina used what she had learned to feed directly into amodellers’ group in her department. Her Fellowship also helpedher value complexity, and learn to express it, resistingtemptations to reduce problems to a single message.

POLICY WORKSHOP

The EBRD is an‘innovation bank’,created to make adifference in ourcountries ofoperation byfinancinginvestments that gobeyond business-as-usual and support market adoption ofimproved technologies and practices.

My main aim for the Policy Fellowship was toidentify a focused number of areas where ouroperations and business needs intersect withthe research interests of motivated academics.

The most concrete impact of my Fellowship –and the one where there has been a lot offollow-up – was on the topic of climateresilience in buildings, and cities moregenerally. The network that was establishedthrough my Fellowship helped to form anexpert panel on climate resilience in buildings.This enabled us to kick off a whole new area of

business development looking to invest inways that improve the climate resilience ofbuildings— both commercial and residential— in climate-vulnerable countries, particularlythose which have high exposure to heat andwater stress in the southern and easternMediterranean.

We believe that the work we are doing will helphouseholds, communities and businessesdeal with increasing climatic variability andclimate extremes. The connections that I havemade at Cambridge will certainly havecontributed to that outcome.

As Head of Climate Change Adaptation at the EBRD, Craig Davies leads onmainstreaming climate resilience into EBRD’s investment operations inCentral and Eastern Europe, Central Asia, the Caucasus, Turkey and thesouthern and eastern Mediterranean.

SPOTLIGHT ON | INNOVATION

A series of meetings between a Policy Fellow

from the Cabinet Office and experts across

the University of Cambridge directly

influenced how government procurement

creates opportunities for SMEs.

A workshop exploring how policy,

regulatory and financial initiatives could

better support innovation provided new

insights for the Senior Adviser for

Innovation in the European Commission.

And a conversation between a BT Policy

Fellow and the Head of the Cavendish

Laboratory led to a workshop with

Cavendish academics and BT technical

researchers to consider new ways that

fundamental physics can be used to deliver

higher internet speeds over greater distance.

Philip Sinclair is Head of Innovation andGrowth in the Cabinet Office. At the start of hisPolicy Fellowship, Philip was responsible forcreating an online procurement service –https://www.gov.uk/contracts-finder – to

enable large contracts issued by government to be broken intosmaller units that would be more accessible to SMEs. Thepurpose was to improve competition, reduce costs andpromote innovation.

CONNECTIONS

Philip used his Policy Fellowshipto engage with researchers at theInstitute for Manufacturing, JudgeBusiness School and theComputer Laboratory, as well aswith behavioural experts and localentrepreneurs. The connectionshe made provided the impetus forPhilip to test ideas and conceptsearly on in the design process.

POLICY WORKSHOP

A workshop with academics from theCavendish Laboratory considered new waysof applying fundamental physics to deliverhigher connection speeds over greaterdistance – a question that has huge purposeand significance for customers, the nation andfor GDP (given that the economic value ofbusinesses islinked strongly totheir connectivity).

One of the topics I was interested inwhen I embarkedon the Fellowshipwas the Internet ofThings, and how we could move towardsbecoming an enabler and purveyor of insight.A meeting with Ying Jin in the Department ofArchitecture helped me think about how welive together, why cities are the way they are,and how they could be in the future.

When I think about a smart city I come to itfrom a telecoms perspective, inevitablythinking about bits and bytes and how toconnect things. However, this novel perspective,which places people at the heart of the city,provoked me to rethink the kinds of environmentsthat people will want to live and work in.

Even for a company like BT, which has veryestablished links and a 30-year relationship withCambridge, the diversity of the University isbreathtaking but also difficult to navigate. WhileBT has a solid base in Cambridge, CSaP’sability to augment that with its high-impact,highly efficient network allows us both to deepenongoing relationships and add new parties.

A conversation between CSaP Policy Fellow Tim Whitley and ProfessorAndy Parker, Head of the Cavendish Laboratory at Cambridge, led to aworkshop with Cambridge academics and BT technical researchers,funding for PhD students, and joint proposals to the EPSRC to supportongoing work.

“One of the most powerful thingsabout the CSaP Policy Fellowship isthat it provoked me to ask questions

that I would not have otherwiseconsidered. Almost immediately you

find yourself engaged inconversations which are interactive,

hugely relevant and valuable.”

SPOTLIGHT ON | HEALTH

Given the importance to health policy of

having access to the best evidence, and

the excellence of biomedical research in

Cambridge, it’s no surprise that policy

makers in this area continue to be strongly

represented in CSaP’s network, and to

make regular visits for workshops and one-

to-one meetings.

For example, CSaP organised a one-day

visit to Cambridge by the HM Treasury team

led by Paul Doyle, HM Treasury’s Director

of Health and Social Care, to discuss the

relationship between public-funded health

research and economic growth.

As part of the visit, Professor John Bradley,

Director of the NIHR Biomedical Research

Centre, hosted a discussion that brought

together experts from Cambridge

University, AstraZeneca, The Babraham

Institute, GSK and Medimmune with policy

makers from NIHR.

Mark Samuels is founding director of theNIHR Office for Clinical Research Infrastructure.Mark’s Policy Fellowship contributed to a NIHRstudy on the relationship between sciencefunding and economic growth – Growth

through health research: The NIHR as an engine for growth –published in March 2015.

CONNECTIONS

Mark used his Fellowship toexpand his network in Cambridgebeyond the medical researchershe would usually engage with,meeting with economists, designengineers and experts in industrialpolicy and architecture.

OU TCOME

Coming to Cambridge during the early stages of his study onscience funding and economic growth made a significantcontribution to the scope of Mark’s project, and helped him tounderstand and present the research. The connections hemade are ongoing and there have been spin-off benefits suchas linking Cambridge academics to other stakeholders andpolicy makers in his network.

“The Treasury visit to the CambridgeBiomedical Research Centre put a human faceto my projects and collaborations. I have spent

all this time thinking about how the NIHR’sinvestment contributes to economic growth,and it is the Treasury – the team that came to

visit – that make the call on future developments.It was immensely useful to hear how they were

thinking, even before the recent Spending Review.”

HealthDuring 2015, connections made through the Policy Fellowships

Programme led to a series of ground-breaking discussions on

the economic and societalimpact of health research.

Dr Kathy Liddell is Director of the Centre forLaw, Medicine and Life Sciences (LML) at theUniversity of Cambridge. Kathy’s researchfocuses on biotechnology and bio-information,with the aim of understanding and improving

the legal frameworks that govern this complex and fast-movingfield.

CONNECTIONS

Dr Mark Bale (a CSaP PolicyFellow from the Department ofHealth) was able to connectKathy’s research group with otherkey parts of government. Ameeting with Linda Kahl (PolicyFellow from BioBricks) raisedawareness of new areas in science and innovation that couldhelp Kathy and her group better understand questions onopenness and innovation in genomics.

OUTCOME

Kathy’s meetings with Policy Fellows, and the subsequentpolicy workshop, led to the publication of a report on thedebates, policy frameworks and recommendations for furtherresearch, and (as Mark Bale explains opposite) helped deliver anew government priority on genomics. Kathy plans to follow-upwith another event in January 2016 building on earlierdiscussions around IP licensing practices for large synbio andgenomic bio-resources.

Realising genomic medicine: intellectual property issues

Working with Dr Kathy Liddell, Director of the Centrefor Law, Medicine and Life Sciences, CSaP organiseda policy workshop to discuss intellectual property (IP)policy, strategies and licensing practices for genomicmedicine.

The workshop report concluded that with substantialpublic and commercial support, innovative scienceand thoughtful policy development, genomicmedicine had the potential to revolutionise healthcareand contribute to economic growth.

The benefits of play in middle childhood

A workshop CSaP organised on behalf of the ESRCand Unilever discussed the strength of availableevidence on the benefits of play in middle childhood,and where research could productively be focused.

With contributions from Professor Helen Roberts, amedical sociologist at UCL, and Dr David Whitebread,a senior lecturer in the psychology of education atCambridge, the workshop report concluded that playin middle childhood was key to human well-being andthat significant work needed to be done to increasethe visibility of the importance of play.

POLICY WORKSHOPS

I am involved in delivering the ‘100,000Genomes Project’, which is a scheme thataims to sequence 100,000 whole genomesfrom NHS patients. It intends to do manythings for many people – deliver benefits topatients, allow access to researchers, andprovide opportunities for industry partners –whilst maintainingpublic trust andconfidence.

The CSaP PolicyFellowship enabledme to reacquaintmyself with Dr Kathy Liddell –who, this year, set up a new centre atCambridge focusing on the legal and ethicalchallenges at the forefront of medicine and thelife sciences – and make several newconnections, including Dr Hilary Burton at thePublic Health Genomics Foundation. Theseconnections led to a Policy Workshop, which

set out to identify and influence key issues inIP affecting the development of genomicmedicine.

The workshop achieved what we’reincreasingly calling ‘open policy making’. It’s agood example of how you can take a problem,bring together the various actors and come upwith a plan that works for everyone. A report ofthe workshop has since been published andhas contributed to the policy approach thatGenomics England is adopting. The next stepwill be to work with researchers to identify thequestions that need to be answered and seewhether they fit with our policy needs.

Dr Mark Bale leads for the Department of Health on emerging healthcarescience areas and their ethical, legal and policy implications. Theconnections made during his Policy Fellowship helped him to deliver ahuge new government priority on genomics.

personal capacity, rather than as acog in a machine, and enabled me tobuild on the connections I have made

to engage others.”“The CSaP policy workshop on genomicmedicine and intellectual property issues wasimportant in that it identified fresh issues andnetworks, helping to reinvigorate my earlier

SPOTLIGHT ON | RISK & RESILIENCE

Risk and resilience – the threats societies

face and how we cope with them – are

recurrent policy priorities for any

government, and this was reflected in the

focus of CSaP’s activities in 2015.

A collaboration with Cambridge’s

Engineering Design Centre led to a

workshop exploring the concept of resilience

in government and industry, and how

engineers can help design resilient systems.

As a result of discussions during his Policy

Fellowship, a Senior Adviser in the National

Security Secretariat asked CSaP to

organise a roundtable discussion for the

Cabinet Office team undertaking the

Strategic Defence and Security Review.

CSaP continues to host the External

Champion to RCUK’s Partnership for

Conflict, Crime and Security Research

(PaCCS), which delivers high quality

research to help improve understanding of

global security challenges.

Elizabeth Surkovic is Deputy Director forScience in Government at the GovernmentOffice for Science. She spent her PolicyFellowship exploring risk assessment, appetitefor risk, and resilience to emergency scenarios.

Following these discussions Liz worked with CSaP on a seriesof workshops exploring how the behavioural sciences can informgovernment planning and responses to emergency situations.

CONNECTIONS

CSaP brought officials fromseveral government departmentstogether with academics from arange of disciplines (includingarchitecture, economics,education, engineering,behavioural science, medicine,public health and security) for aseries of meetings to examine theevidence base. These resulted in the publication of a briefing onhow government can better understand how the publicbehaves in an emergency situation.

OU TCOME

The category of ‘personal reaction’ has been added to all thecase studies that make up the National Risk Register. GO-Science has used insights from the briefing as the basis for apolicy checklist for emergency response planners andmanagers. To date, they have trialled the checklist with onetopic (space weather), and plan to trial it more widely in thefuture with a range of different risks.

Dr Colin Wilson is Head of Strategic Planning,HM Passport Office. In his previous role at theHome Office’s Centre for Applied Science andTechnology, Colin focused his attention duringhis Policy Fellowship on: the need for

enforcement agencies to test for a wide range of drugs in arobust way; issues around how government interacts with thesecurity industry; communication of risk; and the importance ofrandomised control trials.

CONNECTIONS

Colin met with industrialists,entrepreneurs and venturecapitalists, who explained thatcompanies would be willing toinvest more in developing newtechnologies for enforcementagencies if they met anemerging market need. Hespoke with Professor David Spiegelhalter about risk calculationand perception, and a meeting with Professor Larry Shermanencouraged him to use randomised control trials in new areas.

OU TCOME

The model for Home Office procurement of technology haschanged as a result of the conversations Colin had: instead ofcommissioning equipment, the Government now owns thestandard but it is otherwise a commercial arrangement. Colin’sdiscussions with venture capitalists also helped shape the venturecapital sections of the Strategic Defence and Security Review.

Academic input into the Strategic Defence and Security Review

At the request of one of our Policy Fellows, we ran aroundtable discussion for the Cabinet Office teamundertaking the Strategic Defence and SecurityReview (SDSR). The purpose of the discussion was todiscuss academic input into the SDSR, exploring themajor questions that the academic communityconsiders important to the SDSR process.

The meeting took place in Cambridge, and waschaired by Sir Richard Dearlove (former Chief of theSecret Intelligence Service). The main points raisedcentred on: options for strategic focus; prioritisingpeople vs technology; cyber expertise andgovernance; making use of expertise; drivers ofinnovation and a more entrepreneurial culture;strategic communications; and the appetite for risk.

“CSaP’s policy workshop provided an excellentopportunity to test and shape our initial thinkingand challenge our emerging view of the strategiccontext. The discussions on drivers of innovation,building cyber expertise in the UK, and on thebroader need to promote an entrepreneurial culturereally helped to refine our thinking in these areas.”

POLICY WORKSHOP

My group conducts research into the design ofsystems, be they technical, social or socio-technical. Resilience is used as an umbrellaterm for all sort of concepts in a system(adaptability, flexibility, robustness), so it isoften unclear quite what is meant whensomeone describesa system asrequiring,possessing orlacking resilience.

This workshopexplored resilienceconcepts withrespect to different types of systems and fromthe perspective of different domains. Welearned how individuals coming from differentbackgrounds understand resilience and

communicate resilience. It was especiallyinteresting to see participants recognise thatthey could benefit from each other’sapproaches to resilience.

We created a synthesis of what was discussedat the workshop and what we learned and, asa result, have been able to think about andrepresent resilience in a domain-neutral way.Our findings have since been presented at anumber of forums.

Much of the value of the workshop was havingpeople describe the resilience of their systemin terms that other people could understand. Itbecame clear that when resilience claims aremade, the boundaries that define the systemare often left implicit, as is the assumedpurpose of the system.

CSaP worked with Nathan Crilly and his team to deliver a workshopexamining how concepts of resilience differ between governmentdepartments, academia and industry, and how engineers can design moreresilient systems.
