Communicating research to policy makers (FULL)

This session is now fully booked

2:00 - 5:30

Workshop run by William Solesbury, Associate Director – Networks UK Centre for Evidence Based Policy and Practice, Queen Mary, University of London

Practitioners have different expectations of research than fellow researchers - they want to use it. So different communication approaches are needed.

This workshop will explore how to develop relationships that will maximise the influence of your research; how to choose the most appropriate medium, including the pros and cons of speech, print and electronic media; and how to use words, numbers and graphics skillfully to express your message.

The workshop is limited to 20 participants – please book early. If we are over-subscribed we will try to repeat the session.
