Good research can lose its practical value if the people who could use it never receive a clear account of the findings.
A funder may accept a technically sound final report, while a teacher, council officer, employer, or community group remains unsure what the work means for them.
A useful dissemination strategy begins well before the last report is edited. It identifies audiences, decisions, formats, responsibilities, and approval points early enough for the team to act without rushing or weakening the evidence.
