Our research seeks to bring science and society closer together, and as such we have a core interest in developing research which is societally-relevant and developed in conjunction with those who practice science communication. Our portfolio of activities is extensive, including innovative approaches to engaging diverse publics with science, which are informed by research.

We’re looking for a Project Editor to join our Science for Environment Policy project, funded by the European Commission.
