Bridging the gap: Connecting social research with the public and policymakers

This webinar will explore how insights from social research can better reach and benefit both the public and policymakers. Social research often produces valuable knowledge, but it can remain locked within academic or technical circles. We will discuss why making research accessible matters for everyday life and policy, the risks of not doing so, and practical ways to communicate findings clearly. Case examples will show how complex studies can be translated into stories, visuals, and policy briefs that resonate with different audiences.
