Description:
Policy making is a complex process, but talking about it doesn’t have to be. With the “Communication Essentials for Policy Fellows” workshop, Canadian Science Policy Fellows will learn how to best communicate policy goals and outcomes, engage with the media and the general public, and use storytelling principles to demonstrate the importance of their work. Facilitated by award-winning science journalist Jim Handman, the two-day workshop will provide fellows with a toolkit to spread the word on science policy, regardless of subject matter, audience, or complexity.
Workshop Objective:
To increase participant awareness and application of tools available to them to become better communicators interacting with government, media and the public.
