[HubbardBrookCOS] PES survey this week

[Sarah Garlick]

Dear Colleagues:

We are reaching the mid point of the Public Engagement with Science at
LTERs (PES at LTERs
<https://hubbardbrook.org/articles/embedding-public-engagement-science-lter-sites>)
project, a collaborative science communication research and implementation
project at Hubbard Brook and Harvard Forest, funded by NSF’s Advancing
Informal STEM Learning program.

Through this project we are developing our capacities at both sites for
effective engagement with practitioners, industry leaders, policy makers,
and other stakeholders. The work involves leading policy-relevant synthesis
projects at two LTER sites, advancing knowledge about evidence-based
practices in public engagement, and testing and implementing a new
science-society engagement model.

John Besley’s research to investigate scientists’ attitudes about public
engagement and the cultures of engagement at Hubbard Brook and Harvard
Forest is an important aspect of this work. In the coming days you’ll be
hearing from John with a link to his second survey for this project. It
would be a huge help for our team if you could please fill out this survey
when you receive the link. Your participation will directly help shape and
grow the engagement work at Hubbard Brook.

Thank you! Please let me know if you have any questions. Below is a quick
summary of our recent project highlights.

Warm wishes,
Sarah
