Briefing to incoming minister on mission-led science communication

In March 2024, SCANZ sent a briefing note on mission-led science communication to the Hon Judith Collins, Minister of Science, Innovation and Technology. This 2-page briefing was written with input from National Science Challenge staff and coordinated by Kati Doehring, Annabel McAleer, and SCANZ executive member Ceridwyn Roberts.

The brief details the opportunity that exists to use some of the lessons learned in the National Science Challenges to improve the impact of scientific research across society.

Please feel free to use anything in the brief that is helpful in funding applications or any other space where justification for science communication is necessary.
