We are inviting staff feedback to evaluate the Building a Secure and Resilient World Think Policy Seminar, and help inform potential future activity.  

Thank you for taking time to fill in this survey, which will take approximately 5 minutes to complete.

 

About the series:
The Think Policy seminar series first launched in March 2022, when Professor Dame Ottoline Leyser and Professor Alison Park welcomed Sir Patrick Vallance (Government Chief Scientific Adveiser) and Professor Sarah Sharples (Chief Scientific Adviser, Department for Transport) to share their vision for science advice in government. 

The seminars were open to all staff across UKRI and featured prominemnt individuals who sought to demystify how research evidence is used by decision makers in government.

Think Policy has been designed to develop the capabilities of staff across UKRI to develop R&D investments with policy impact and engagement in mind, by providing access to a range of perspectives from senior policy stakeholders on how they use evidence in decision making.
