The re is an urgent, recognized need to bridge the gap between science and poli cy to enhance the use of scientific knowledge as a basis for decision-makin g. Scientific assessments are principal mechanisms for harnessing scientifi c information to inform policy- and decision-making. A scientific assessmen t is, however, far more than just a final report or deliverable, it is the entire multi-year process, within which expert knowledge is gathered, evalu ated, interpreted - before it is communicated to decision-makers and other audiences.

Participants will have a chance to learn more about scient ific assessments, their do’s and don’ts, best practices in translating and communicating science and knowledge into action, and how individual scienti sts can make their voice heard. Workshop outcomes will contribute with thei r views to the discussions on the last day of the conference.

The wor kshop is open to all participants of the International C onference on Arctic Science: Bringing Knowledge to Action.

Registration deadline is on 15 April 2017. To register, please f ill out the online form here.
