Making your research understandable and relevant to the public
Researchers are increasingly expected to explain their work to the public, industry, policy-makers and other stakeholders. Good communication requires the skill of shortly and clearly summarising one's work and making it interesting to the audience. This 1-day workshop will provide advice and practical exercises on how to identify the aspects of your work that might be interesting to the public and present them in an understandable and engaging way.
