The Advisory Panel for Public Engagement provides advice to the Science and Technology Facilities Council (STFC) Council and Executive Board on strategy, policies and programme balance for public engagement with STFC’s science and technology, and provides new ideas for programme development. The work of the panel covers the full STFC public engagement programme, delivered between STFC’s national laboratories and the council’s head office in Swindon.
Members of the Advisory Panel for Public Engagement demonstrate expertise in the strategy, planning, delivery and evaluation of a range of public engagement programmes.
