The Conversation: an introductory presentation

Editors present: Annabel Bligh (Business + Economy), Gemma Ware (Society + Education)

If you're in an academic career, or if you're looking to pursue one, communicating your research to a range of audiences is probably going to be an important part of what you do. The Conversation is a new platform aimed at encouraging exactly this.

What is The Conversation?
The Conversation is an independent source of news and views, sourced from the academic and research community and delivered direct to the public. You can read more about the Conversation here: http://theconversation.com/uk/who-we-are

Introductory session for Humanities and Social Sciences researchers
Led by editors from the Conversation, this session will provide participants with an introduction to the Conversation: what it is, how to get involved, what are the benefits, tips for writing for general audience, examples of articles, plus a talk from an Oxford academic who has already seen the benefits for their research profile.
