Description
This session is aimed at researchers who are interested in influencing policy. We will cover a range of questions including: who makes policy? What does policy-making look like and where can research influence it? What different routes are there to influence policy for researchers at an early stage in their career? What are the considerations for researchers interested in influencing policy - where do you start?
