Making use of CASE Dr Adam C Cooper, DCMS
What is CASE? Strategic research programme Joint with ACE, SE, EH, MLA Fundamental policy knowledge needs
Why CASE? • Previously research patchy • Divided resources • Unable to build an evidence base
Who is it for? • National policy bodies • Local policy bodies • Delivery • Research sector supporting policy
Local Focus • Making policy according to HMT Green Book • Responding to local needs • Prioritising limited local resources
Overview of outputs • Covers 3 core elements of policy: • Needs • Drivers • Impacts and their Value
Needs analysis (what impact do we need to make?) • What’s happening in my area? • Local & regional insights • Local Profile tool • Mapping toolkit • Using Taking Part • Other data (schools, crime, wider business etc)
Drivers for impact • Impact aims to address the need • ‘What works?’ • CASE database • Engagement studies list • Drivers of engagement
Evidence of impact • What do we know about what effect doing x has? • CASE Impacts of engagement • CASE database • Other data, esp. longitudinal
Valuing the impacts I • Understand the level of investment that makes sense • Measuring cultural value • Value of engagement report • Economic analysis building on Insights & Profiles
Some issues/barriers • Using national data • Using international (or non-local) research • Valuing your own data (e.g. spend data) • Marshalling other sources (e.g. audience data)
