Researchers who were carefully selected and will compete for the Global Awards and Competitions- also known, as Finalists- will present their research at the GDN 14th Annual Conference on Inequality, Social Protection and inclusive growth in Manila, 2013.
AERC in partnership with GDNet and CommsConsult arranged a two days workshop in Kenya. The workshop focused mainly on approaches that researchers would undertake in order to better communicate research to their target audience to maximize uptake and impact.
During the Awards and Medals Training Workshop in Budapest, Megan Lloyd Laney (CommsConsult) discussed how to deal with contentious questions, and effectively address them, and win the crowd in the process.
Delivered jointly with CommsConsult, this workshop aimed to do two things: first to strengthen capacities to identify key messages and tailor research for different audiences; and second, to develop skills, confidence and a powerful presentation for each finalist to present to the Judging Committee and other scholars at the conference.
In the framework of the GDN PEM Project "Strengthening Institutions to Improve Public Expenditure Accountability", GDNet organised and delivered in partnership with CommsConsult a two day workshop in Delhi on October 10-11, 2011.
