Evidence For Democracy

Interested in science/research advocacy? I just got this note from Evidence for Democracy (#E4D). Link to the launch is below.
"Save the date! We’re thrilled to announce that our brand new bilingual Essential Guide to Science Advocacy is launching on October 23. Whether you work in the physical sciences or the humanities, this will be your new starting point to explore the foundational knowledge and tools necessary to effectively engage in advocacy as a researcher....
To celebrate the launch of this new resource, we’re convening a panel of experts to ask an important question: what does science advocacy look like today, in a world of echo chambers, misinformation and hyper-polarization? Join us for the launch event on Monday 23rd October, at 11 AM ET, to explore this with panelists Dr. Rémi Quirion, Senator Stanley Kutcher and Dr. Allison Sekuler.

Our panel will explore how advocacy is a space where scientists can play a bigger and more effective role. Register to attend the panel today and get a first look at the new Guide."

Evidence For Democracy
Evidence for Democracy (E4D) is a non-prof created by various scientists and others during the Harper government years when federal scientists were muzzled. Media, including me, were unable to get interviews with researchers working in climate, fisheries, oil, environment -- even if it was about studies they'd published!
Anyway, E4D does research and advocacy to push for policies that are based on #science and evidence -- not politics.
They do great work. They rely largely on public support.
Read about them. If you like what they do, check out their donations page. Or, become one of the #scientists or communicators who help them do what they do.
I have a soft spot for them. Just before the organization was fully formed, I met with the founders a few times and shared my experiences in non-prof organizations, media and #scicomm.
