"In 1999 the Adult Literacy and Numeracy Australian Research Consortium (ALNARC) received the first of three years of sponsored research funding from the Department of Training and Youth Affairs (DETYA) to undertake research in adult literacy and numeracy, network with field based stakeholders and disseminate the findings of the research. This study used data from the period 1999-2000 to investigate three distinct layers of participant involvement and response to the sponsored research program: the research 'leaders' conceptualizing support; the sponsored researchers undertaking projects; and the 'field as an ill-defined group of stakeholders who were at once the 'target' of, and the vehicle for generating, research outcomes. This report provides a description and analysis of an innovative program which received a mixed response from stakeholders and participants." --Executive summary.
