COMPASS

✨ This Friday: Policy Pathways ✨

Policy shapes public life in many ways, and often is a necessary part of lasting change. Accurate information is vital to good public policy, but often people’s understanding of policy pathways starts and stops at elections. Yet there are many, many more ways to get involved in public policy, at all levels of governance!

This workshop takes a closer look at the variety of roles that people can play in the policy process, with an emphasis on accurately communicating science and knowledge.

💡 Learn about the many pathways for policy engagement
💡 Identify policy pathways that align with your goals and strengths
💡 Develop a plan for moving along a policy pathway you identify
💡 Receive feedback on your plan

When science meets public concern, conflict and policymaking, science communication can get complex fast.

You may be asked to explain risk, navigate disagreement, discuss tradeoffs, or engage in policy with people who bring very different perspectives to the table.

Our new 4-workshop series, COMPASS Skill Sprint: Communicating Science in Complex Settings, is designed to help scientists and technical experts build confidence communicating when it matters most.

Over four weeks, we'll explore how to:
✨ Make your work resonate with people outside your field,
✨ Communicate risk clearly and effectively,
✨ Navigate conflict productively, and
✨ Connect science to U.S. policy.

🎓️ You also have the option to receive a Professional Certificate upon completion. If you're ready to grow your impact, join us!
