This 9-month leadership program kicks off with an in-person retreat from April 13-16, 2022 near Seattle, WA focused on strategic science communication, engagement with decision makers (from civic leaders to policymakers), and leadership. At the retreat, the 15 scientists selected for this cohort will set and refine their goals for civic engagement, practice new communication and leadership skills, learn new pathways for engagement, and become part of an inspiring and lasting network of mutually supportive peers.
Goal
- Build a network of empowered, mutually supportive science leaders who are motivated and prepared to engage with decision makers, from civic leaders to policy makers, and who inspire their colleagues to do so as well.
- Help participants identify their purpose and goals for communication and civic engagement.
- Provide participants with the skills, tools, and knowledge they need to reach their communication and civic engagement goals.
- Empower scientists to work with their communities to support evidence-based decision-making at the local level and beyond.
Benefits
- A 3.5-day retreat in science communication, policy engagement, and leadership with world-class trainers that will provide you with the knowledge, tools, and support you need to help you realize your civic engagement goals;
- Membership in a cohort of motivated, inspirational environmental scientists who are eager to support each other in making the world a better place;
- Coaching, peer support, and additional training opportunities to support you in your development as a scientist leader;
