Communicating the impact of your research with audiences beyond academia can be challenging. Join ISA, the Connecticut chapter of the Scholars Strategy Network (SSN), and InCHIP for a practical training on how to communicate your research findings with policymakers and community members through policy briefs and op-eds. Kerri Raissian will define the role of a policymaker and the policymaking process, the key components of an op-ed, and the major distinctions between an op-ed and a policy brief. Debarchana Ghosh will talk about different ways to communicate research findings to policymakers (and community) with examples. Caitlin Caspi will set out best practices for writing the brief, including organization, visuals, and language, and give some examples. This workshop is open to ISA and SSN members, UConn affiliates, and the wider public.
