Great privilege to participate in the Science Meets Parliament in Canberra this week #SMP25 and get direct insides into how policies gets shaped, understand successful advocacy and be able to speak up for science with parliamentarians! Thanks @science for organising this great event!
From research to reality and advocacy with impact, in these sessions at #SMP2025, two stellar panels explore the role of policy advisors in decision-making and how to turn your ideas into action.

Do you know the name of the moon in an Indigenous language? If you said no, you’re not alone.

Despite their long history, very few Australians are taught the names and stories of Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander people, a poignant point from John-Paul Janke at Science Meets Parliament
