Policy and Research
Clear analysis and persuasive evidence are core to the work
of the Northern Way.
In the past, research evidence has underpinned our key
strategic documents such as the Northern Way Growth Strategy,
our policy submissions into the Government Review of
sub-national Economic Development and investment proposals for
programmes delivered through the Growth Fund.
Building on this strong record of research, between 2008 and
2011, we will place a greater priority on this work. Our policy
and research programme will aim to:
- develop evidence in our key theme areas to support policy
change and encourage investment
- support regional strategy development from a pan-regional
perspective, focusing on the three Integrated Regional
Strategies in the North of England and the economic
development of our city-regions and other territories
- stimulate thinking about the long term development of our
economy through; assessment of its current performance and
potential, understanding of emerging opportunities and
challenges, learning from other territories and from
evaluation of our work
- take forward an comprehensive evaluation of the work of
the Northern Way which details and identifies learning from
our activities and disseminates this information
This work programme is supported by the Northern Way Research Forum
which draws together policy and research teams from Regional
Development Agencies and city regions alongside colleagues from
central Government and Regional Observatories to ensure
coordination and shared ownership of this work. We will also
aim to build wider collaboration with other stakeholders to
build knowledge and add value.
