How do you make academic research accessible to policymakers, the general public, and civil society? More importantly, how do you make it resonate?

In this episode of Ampersand, we dig into this and more with Tara Lapointe, Vice President of Stakeholder Engagement and Advancement at the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada (SSHRC). Tara shares insights from her impressive career spanning arts, culture, and academic research, and provides valuable lessons for communicators navigating the challenges of translating complex research into accessible language.
