Communication

The broad scope of CABFISHMAN’s research partners and stakeholders means that clear, concise communication between all parties is central to the success of the project. To achieve this, our Communication Team tailors outputs of the project to suit each of our key audiences in fisheries, science, policy and the environmental sector.

Work undertaken by the Communication Team includes:

  • Maintaining public and academic awareness of the project through direct engagement with stakeholders and producing informative briefings.
  • Coordinating knowledge exchange workshops for policy makers and researchers (as well as other groups).
  • Maintaining a strong social media presence and regularly sharing updates on the project website.

Our communicators work closely with the Coordination Team and Engagement Team to facilitate open productive interaction between all invested parties.
