Communicating Nitrogen Research: Working with the media to develop effective strategies
The second workshop focussing on the communication of nitrogen research will be held in London from 24th to 26th January 2011. The central theme of the event will be the development of strategies to communicate the results of NitroEurope and the European Nitrogen Assessment (ESF NinE) through discussions with media professionals and scientists with media experience. Based on these discussions, a "Nitrogen Information Pack" will be developed through group work and an action plan for communication activities in 2011 drawn up. Participant accommodation, breakfast, lunch and travel costs (up to a maximum of 400 Euros travel costs per participant) will be funded by the organisers. More information is available here (logged-on users only). Places are limited to 25 and, in the case of over-subscription, selection will be based on the responses to the questions on the application form (available here, logged-on users only). Due to the short notice of the workshop, the application deadline is 10th December 2010.
