Public dialogue enables decision makers to develop socially informed policy on issues relating to science and technology.

Sciencewise has specialised in helping government departments, bodies and researchers to bring public insight into science and technology policy and research. 

Our team has broad expertise in a range of methods to meaningfully work with the public.

One of the methods that we helped to pioneer twenty years ago is public dialogue. 

Public dialogue is a process that brings together policy makers, researchers and the public to explore the implications of science and technology together. 

This is a respected and valued approach used globally by policy makers and researchers who are interested in making sure that science and technology works well for everyone.
