Building Scientific Capacity in Massachusetts Government: A National Movement for Evidence-Based Policy
March 31 @ 2:00 pm - 3:00 pm
Join the Scientific Citizenship Initiative for a conversation exploring the growing national movement to embed scientific expertise directly within state legislatures, why funders and policymakers are investing in these models, and how Massachusetts is positioned to join this movement.
In this webinar, we’ll discuss:
-
Why scientific capacity matters for real-time policy decisions in state government
-
What national momentum looks like and what funders are catalyzing
-
Where capacity gaps show up in Massachusetts today
-
How science and technology policy fellowship models can help address those gaps
-
What this opportunity could look like in Massachusetts
