This 'toolkit' will be combined with intensive training in communication techniques so that our PhD students are better equipped to talk to boards, government, regulators, legislators and policymakers.

[MSF_Lancaster @MsfLancaster]

Students of the Material Social Futures programme will be equipped with a 'toolkit' of methods that can be applied in their own research so that they can 'think through' the likely consequences of their research.
