A framework for plant science education drawing together the five key themes. To cultivate the next generation, plant science education for the future must: Position plants at the centre of an education that addresses global challenges and societal values; Be enriched by local and strategic partnerships; Prepare students for their futures using bold and effective pedagogies; Give educators resources and opportunities to connect and develop; and embrace equity, diversity and Inclusion.

I've attended a keynote lecture of hers where she talked about her work and all the so-called strategies that are used to fake articles and results.
Super interesting and made me look at publications differently. I highly recommend you check out her work!

Viele Umwelt-NGOs haben sich vor über 30 Jahren entschieden, gegen #Gentechnik zu sein. Statt sich über die Jahre zu hinterfragen, betreiben sie die Kampagnen einfach weiter. Sie sind zum Selbstzweck geworden.
@sciencenotes.bsky.social wirft einen kritischen Blick auf #Greenpeace & Co.
Wie NGOs mit der Kritik an Gentechnik Geld verdienen
Viele Organisationen üben Kritik an der Grünen Gentechnik. Sie sagen: Es geht um den Schutz von Mensch und Umwelt. Stimmt das? Wie NGOs mit der Kritik an Gentechnik Geld verdienen
