'Standing up for Science EU' media workshop, Friday 10th November 2017, University of Warsaw

by simon.robinson

 

Support from early-career researchers to ‘Standing up for Science EU’ is now more important than ever, and it is crucial that their voices are heard in public debates about science and evidence.

In June 2017, MCAA joined the first ‘Standing up for Science EU’ workshop in Brussels, to give early career researchers the tools and insights to inform policy, and have a stronger voice within the EU. This workshop was hugely over-subscribed, and received very positive feedback from both partners and participants, In the light of this success, the MCAA is participating in a second ‘Standing up for Science EU’ workshop, at the University of Warsaw, on Friday 10th November 2017.

Date: 2017-11-10; 09h00 to 16h00
