Stakeholder Group
The Stakeholder Group is made up of funders, publishers, learned societies and other stakeholders supporting the UKRNThe Stakeholder Group
External Stakeholders who support and work closely with the UKRN, form the Stakeholder Group and ensure that UKRN activity is aligned with the strategy and activity of the stakeholders. All members are required to agree to our mission and values.
Our structure allows for two types of Stakeholder Group membership: full membership for organisations that are part of the academic environment, to provide direct financial support or support in kind for UKRN, and affiliate membership, for organisations that are part of the wider research environment, who only provide support in kind.
The UKRN Supervisory Board determines whether a potential External Stakeholder should be a full or affiliate member of the Stakeholder Group. We only accept financial support from full stakeholders.
