2 Open Positions with the Science Policy Exchange
NOTE: All positions have now been filled.
As part of the Harvard Forest's commitment to building programs that connect science, communication, and policy outreach, recently we have helped to launch the Science Policy Exchange, which now seeks to fill two open positions (one full-time Coordinator, one part-time Administrative Assistant) based at the Harvard Forest to coordinate regional Exchange activities.
The Exchange is dedicated to increasing the impact of science on conservation and environmental policy. The consortium leverages the research resources of six world-class institutions, four Long-Term Ecological Research (LTER) sites, and dozens of participating scientists to confront environmental challenges. They connect scientists with leaders in government, nonprofit, and corporate sectors to define knowledge gaps; synthesize and translate existing research on timely policy and conservation questions; and undertake strategic outreach and communications to amplify science messages for journalists and decision makers.
