Webinar Program Explores A Model Program for Communicating Science to Decision Makers
Funding agencies increasingly encourage grant recipients to communicate their findings to appropriate stakeholders. Many researchers, particularly those involved with projects with implications for environmental or public health management and policy, want to communicate research findings to appropriate decision makers, news media outlets, or the general public. This webinar presents information and findings from the HBRF Science Links Program, an experiment conducted by scientists and engineers affiliated with the Hubbard Brook research program. The HBRF Science Links Program demonstrates how a team of scientists can identify and plan a program that effectively delivers timely scientific findings to audiences that need the information to inform decision making.
