Resource description:
The scientific world has changed beyond recognition in recent years. The days when scientists produced reports and expected policy-makers to read and then act upon them are long gone! Through sharing of state-of-the art knowledge, interactive games and best practice examples, this course outlines the skills scientists need for their research results to have a bigger impact on policy and society in general.
This 60 minutes course explores the skills scientists need to better engage with policy makers. In particular, you will learn how to: - know your audience better; - appreciate the different language used by scientists and policymakers; - get your key messages across with confidence.
