On Monday morning I set off at an obscenely early hour for the PCST Conference in Istanbul, Turkey. As ever, this was an opportunity to catch up with old friends, make new ones, and share learning in science communication and engagement.
But why leave home in the middle of the night? My early start was down to an invitation to run a workshop for postgraduate and early career researchers.
Due to unforeseen travel disruptions I didn’t make it on time. I’m therefore writing this post for anyone who missed the session.
The post includes an overview of the workshop I’d planned with links to a set of resources that can be used as a self-reflection activity to assess and evidence your skills and competencies in public engagement.
