Scientists and engineers who foster information-sharing and respect between science and the public are essential for the public communication of and engagement with science. Funding agencies are increasingly encouraging researchers to extend beyond peer-reviewed publishing and communicate their results directly to the greater public. In response to this need in science communications, the AAS Centre for Engagement with Science has partnered with the National Science Foundation to provide resources for scientists and engineers, both online and through in-person workshops to help researchers communicate more broadly with the public. This site contains online resources include webinars, how-to tips for media interviews, strategies for identifying public communication and more.
