Framework for courses in science communication

This report is about how researchers at the start of their careers can become better equipped to share their knowledge outside academia. The authors present a three-part framework for courses in science communication.

The report is a result of discussions within a team of researchers and communication experts. In the report, team members share their reflections and recommendations, based on preconditions within and outside academia. It also presents lessons learnt from a pilot course held at Örebro University.
