CHEAD REF Advocacy Briefing Document

Please find below a downloadable copy of CHEAD's REF Advocacy Briefing Document. We hope you can use the REF Advocacy piece internally as a prompt to your colleagues to continue to support Art and Design, and practice-based research, more strategically. The piece has been co-developed with CHEAD's RIKE Alliance Strategy Group.

To acquire an editable version of the document, which you can contextualise for your own institution, please email info@chead.ac.uk. We would encourage you to use the editable format to highlight areas of good practice and successful outcomes from your REF submission whilst also using this as an opportunity to surface any areas of concern.
