Abstract

This article explores how the research process implemented in a Welsh Government commissioned evaluation of Ask and Act contributed to making meaningful recommendations for policy and practice. Ask and Act is a type of training delivered across the public service in Wales to identify violence against women, domestic abuse and sexual violence. The article draws on reflections from the research team, including the principal investigator/contractor from Sheffield Hallam University, and Welsh Government social researchers and policy colleagues. It concludes with five key considerations and associated questions to support those planning and undertaking similar research projects or evaluations.
