Too much clever research doesn't achieve the influence it should.
Boost your research, idea or funding grant application by learning how Government works and policies are made. Find out who ‘they’ are and what they want.
We’ve commissioned policy consultant Dr Anna McMartin to give SfTI researchers the inside scoop on what drives policy decision makers at all levels, including Ministries, Ministers, Cabinet and Parliament.
You’ll learn:
- how each group is made up
- what powers they do and don’t have
- what they care about, and
- how your research can influence the policies and recommendations they adopt.
Anna will also take ‘Ask Me Anything’ questions in a free-and-frank session at the end of the webinar. This is a valuable opportunity to have your burning questions answered in a supportive and open environment.
