Learn how to communicate your science clearly and concisely in a way that
will resonate for people in your community at this hands-on American
Geophysical Union (AGU) communications workshop hosted by the University
Corporation for Atmospheric Research (UCAR) <https://www2.ucar.edu/>
and Climate
Voices <http://climatevoices.org/>.

When scientists share their work and its value with community groups,
science enters into the local dialogue, and scientists become accessible
resources in their communities.

At this interactive workshop, you will learn how to communicate science to
people in your community in a relevant, engaging, and memorable way. You
will learn how to identify the right group for you to reach out to, how to
create an effective message about your research/work, and how to tailor
your presentation for a specific audience. You will also learn critical
listening skills, have the chance to practice public speaking, and receive
feedback from communication experts and your peers. In addition, Climate
Voices may be able to help you contact local groups that are interested in
hosting local scientists.

This workshop is designed for scientists who want to learn how to more
effectively communicate their research/work, as opposed to policy
professionals, outreach specialists, journalists, or other professional
communicators.

Scientists from all disciplines and of all communications-experience levels
are welcome. This workshop is free and lunch will be provided. Advance
sign-up is required and registration is on a first-come, first-served basis.
