The Young Voices of Science program consists of a series of expert-led workshops, each designed to prepare and empower science scholars to share their knowledge, concerns, and hopes for the future with the wider world, and provide a launch pad for public engagement early in their scientific careers. Workshop leaders are experts in public engagement with science, creative writing, storytelling, and science-to-policy outreach. Class size is limited to 20-25 participants; we ask that participants commit to all eight workshops and design and carry out at least one outreach project, with support from a staff mentor.

We encourage you to apply by the deadline once our application opens and to share this opportunity with your networks!
