From this we hoped to gather a robust evidence-based understanding of the impact over time of the work we do. It has been a chance to review in detail our current practice, learn how we may improve, share this learning with others, provide a framework to experiment with new approaches and move into our next phase of development with good evidence of our value, and a secure understanding of the impact we have on participants’ lives.
You can find out more about the background to the research bellow, or explore our two main strands of activity: conversations with artists about co-creation and walking interviews with Compass Festival participants.
