From climate knowledge to climate action – bridging the science-policy divide
Engaging policy makers with research evidence can be challenging at the best of times, but particularly when dealing with a problem as wicked as climate change and decarbonisation. This talk will explore some of the obstacles in the way of scientists who seek to ‘speak truth to power’, and how the higher education sector (and the University of Nottingham in particular) is seeking to bridge the gap. It will also offer participants the chance to reflect on how they can best engage in the policy dialogues that will shape the future of our planet.
