Journal Article
A Public Health of Consequence: Shifting the Cultural Narrative From Churning Grants to a Scholarship of Consequence
2019
Overview
A confluence of challenges is impeding faculty members’ ability to prioritize research with the goal of achieving a public health of consequence: research designed to improve conditions to produce a healthier society. Together, these challenges create a “churn” culture in which faculty focus on generating new business (i.e., grant funding and associated incentives) to replace lost revenue (i.e., expiring grants); this culture can relegate public health impact to a back seat. We share three strategies and related insights from our efforts to shift our department’s cultural narrative from churn to a “scholarship of consequence”: crafting research proposals of consequence, fostering thought leadership through collaborative writing, and mentoring faculty with a view to a scholarship of consequence. We describe each of the strategies and interim progress. Although they are a work in progress, we conclude that despite initial concerns, our evaluation metrics indicate improvement.
