Genetics in Your Community: An Interactive Workshop to Explore Impactful Public Engagement – ONLINE

What can genetics engagement look like in practice? What impacts can this have on participants, including scientists themselves? Personal Genetics Education & Dialogue (PGED) will lead an interactive workshop on the needs, opportunities, and challenges in public engagement on genetics research and its impacts on society, drawing on the expertise of forum attendees and PGED’s more than 19 years of experience working with educators, scientists, faith leaders, storytellers, and policymakers, among other stakeholders. Learn about public engagement resources, how to build genetics engagement networks, events to participate in or lead, and build experience with PGED’s new free genetics engagement resource, “Share Your Stance,” an interactive card game for middle and high school students and adult learners.
