Dear Critters,
For those academics based in the UK I just wondered if you could please take 5 minutes conducting the survey in the link below on academic perceptions of evidence-use for policymaking. Our response is quite low at the moment hence
this call for my fellow geographers to help out! We need to get as many responses as possible so please feel free to circulate in your academic networks outside of geography and the social sciences.

Background to project:
For more information on our proposed Evidence Information Service project please see:
An open access paper we just published on the results of a parliamentarian consultation:

Sorry for the unashamed project promotion but this is of relevance to many geographers who do policy engagement work.
Thanks in advance! Kind regards,
Andrew
