Abstract: My faculty should still 'look at how British law schools are defining and measuring impact, since they operate at the forefront'.A quick dive into the British 'Research Evaluation Framework' (REF) reveals that impact accounts for 25% of the law schools' 'overall quality profile', next to their 'research output' (60%) and their 'research environment' (15%).It is quite similar for the Netherlands, where 'societal relevance in terms of impact' is also one of the three criteria (not weighted), next to 'research quality' and the research unit's 'viability'.See, respectively, the 2021 version of the Research Excellence Framework (REF), available at 2021.ref.ac.uk; 'Strategy Evaluation Protocol (SEP)', available at www.universiteitenvannederland.nl/onde rwerpen/onderzoek/evaluatie-protocol-onderzoek-sep. 2 See, e.g., 'Impactfestival 2021 VSNU', available at www.tilburguniversity.edu/research/impact/events/impact-festival- 2021-vsnu.3 See 'EU Missions in Horizon Europe', available at research-and-innovation.ec.europa.eu/funding/
