We need to start focussing more on collective impact culture than individual success, and reward engagement as much as impact, and local impacts as much as more far-reaching ones

We need to find ways to incentivise more synthesis work instead of trying to generate impact from every individual study that's funded
We need to talk more about the ethics of impact and make spaces to talk about and learn from what goes wrong
