Scicence Policy Research Workshops
The Science Museum is working together with the Science Policy Research Unit at the University of Sussex to open up public discussion into fascinating and important areas of policy research.

We will explore areas such as the future of food production, the global maker movement and the relationship between science and war.

Over the coming months we will be doing this through a series of interactive workshops where you will have the opportunity to meet experts in the field, have your say and provide input into future research ideas.

If you’d like to find out more about these workshops or sign up to take part please email marketing@sciencemuseum.ac.uk
