Become great at public engagement!

We are developing a FREE web-based public engagement workshop taking you from the basics of video production all the way to explaining your PhD to someone you just met at a party.

Workshops will be done 100% online in small groups with other researchers, each class running for up to two weeks with a total time commitment of under 3 hours. You will have produced a great short video about your work by the end of your workshop.

To get you started in the meantime, we'll send you a free PDF ebook on fundamentals of public engagement. We wrote this ebook based on our experience of running public engagement workshops and it's not available anywhere else.
