With apologies to colleagues for cross-posting
List members and colleagues may be interested in these networking and
professional development opportunities in Edinburgh.
Two Science Communication Working Lunches will be held in April, during the
Edinburgh International Science Festival 2005. These workshop-style events
provide participants with the opportunity to share their experience, to
learn about developments in the field and to network. They are open to
everyone working, or interested, in communicating science – be they in
education or research organisations, museums, science centres or other
science-based visitor attractions.
The first, entitled “Small Talk - Bigger Better Outcomes” will be held at
Our Dynamic Earth on Tuesday, 5 April.
The second, at the Royal Society of Edinburgh on Thursday, 7 April, will
consider “New Ways of Engaging the Young”. This latter event is forming
part of the British Council Seminar for science communicators from
overseas, so will offer science communicators a rare UK-based opportunity
for networking and experience-sharing on an international scale.
Cost (inc. lunch): BA Members £12; Non-members £17
Pre-booking essential – spaces are limited
