Researchers are also communicators. The SNSF offers media training, video workshops and politics courses to help you strengthen your skills in this area.
It is important for research to be perceived and discussed in society. That is why the SNSF supports science communication with the public. It also encourages constructive dialogue between science and politics.
In this age of disinformation, alternative facts and misleading propaganda bots on social media, it is important for research expertise and scientific facts to be heard in the discussions that take place in society.
But how do scientific findings get into the media? How can you, as a researcher, contribute to the political process? If you have these questions on your mind, you will find suitable training courses here. The courses also provide an opportunity for dialogue with researchers from other fields and universities.
