Beyond dissemination: measuring evidence uptake.
DER tracks what happens after publication, connecting communication outputs to real-world use, follow-through and institutional value — an altmetrics-style evidence-to-impact layer tailored for institutional reports, statistics, grey literature and datasets, not only journal articles.
Attention, use, uptake and follow-through.
Was it seen?
Views, downloads, media mentions, social engagement, news references and public discussion signals.
Was it opened and acted on?
Website sessions, document downloads, citations, brief requests, API pulls and repeat access.
Was it cited or referenced?
Evidence cited in policy, planning, budgets, programme design, donor reports or academic work.
Did it change a decision?
Requests for training, capacity building, data access, collaboration or commercialization.
A verified narrative from output to institutional result.
An impact case links an output to a decision, action, investment, public conversation or institutional result — giving funders, leadership and programme teams evidence that dissemination is producing results.
