Dissemination

Research dissemination activities include academic publishing and delivering papers at academic conferences as well as other means of communicating research findings to non-academic audiences. This may include developing written or audio-visual materials directed at a non-academic audience, facilitating workshops with non-academic research partners, writing op-eds, speaking to the media, preparing briefing packages or submissions to government communicating your research results, meeting with government, industry, or non-profit sector leaders, or other creative research dissemination activities.
