What is MULTI-ACT ?

Multi-Act is an European Commission-funded project. The tools it created will help you increase positive impact of your research initiative on people living with brain disorders.

In the MULTI-ACT, we have created the Collective Research Impact Framework (CRIF). At the heart of the CRIF lies the concept of co-accountability: it assesses impact of research in multiple areas, from multiple stakeholders’ perspectives. The key areas of impact assessment are economic, social, excellence, efficacy and patient-reported dimensions. Incorporating patients’ knowledge through engagement is crucial if you want to maximize research impact. Additionally, CRIF designed a set of flexible governance recommendations which allow your initiative to meet the different (and sometimes competing) needs of the stakeholders involved in the research process;

CRIF includes also Governance Criteria which facilitate governing you initiative in a participatory way, with a focus on patient engagement. Following our governance recommendations, you will stay on course to achieving your mission and agenda.

Patient engagement permeates all elements of CRIF: we believe that incorporating patients’ knowledge and experience is crucial to producing excellent research and maximizing its positive impact on the patients and the society in general.

The key areas of impact assessment described in the Master Scorecard are economic, social, excellence, efficacy and patient-reported dimensions.
