Likewise for publications at CSER. I’d add that for policy work, written policy submissions often provide summaries and key takaways and action-relevant points based on ‘primary’ work done by the centre and its collaborators, where the primary work is peer-reviewed.
We’ve received informal/private feedback from people in policy/government roles at various points that our submissions and presentations have been particularly useful or influential. And we’ll have some confidential written testimony to support this for a few examples for University REF (research excellence framework) assessment purposes; however unfortunately I don’t have permission to share these publicly at this time. However, this comment I wrote last year provides some info that could be used as indirect indications of the work being seen as high-quality (being chosen as a select number to be invited to present orally; follow-up engagement, etc).
