I'm happy that I took this course. It has opened my eye to a whole new approach of research - the Research for Impact approach. This is where the research is done with key stakeholders as a way of easily communicating finsdings and creating the space for those stakeholders to utilize the research findings. Additionally, the materials in the course are presented by people who have vast experiences in research drawn from different fields. I like it!
