Event details
At the centre of this online session will be discussion on and around how Artificial Intelligence (AI) can be used to turn stakeholder maps into meaningful action.
The Universities Policy Engagement Network (UPEN)’s Professional Development Subcommittee presents an AI Miniseries exploring how Artificial Intelligence (AI) can support and elevate knowledge mobilisation.
Across the series, events will cover how AI can streamline workflows and spark creative approaches to engaging human audiences.
This webinar focuses on stakeholder mapping — the process of identifying, evaluating, and prioritising the people who can influence policy work or are affected by it.
A clear stakeholder map helps teams understand key players, allocate resources wisely, and build strong communications and engagement strategies from the start.
Using a real-life stakeholder mapping exercise and engagement campaign from Equalise: ESRC Centre for Lifecourse Health Equity and its policy partners, the webinar will demonstrate how AI can be used to identify stakeholders, design workshop materials, and plan an event that is not only effective but genuinely fun.
The keynote speaker — Audrey Tan — has been working in the academic-policy engagement space since 2020 and is keen to share her experiences of working smarter, not harder, with others.
This session will be recorded.
