SCRREE Framework for Public Engagement with Science

The APEAL Project endeavors to put the 6-part SCRREE framework for public engagement into action at Long Term Ecological Research (LTER) sites. SCRREE (Strategic, Cumulative, Reciprocal, Reflexive, Equitable, and Evidence-based) was developed by Sarah Garlick and John Besley, with support from the Consult with Catalyst team and a whole host of others, by combing communications research and practical engagement experience. Sarah was the Director of Science Policy at the Hubbard Brook Research Foundation, and the briefs below employ concrete examples of engagement, drawn from a variety of LTER sites to illustrate the concepts.
