As part of the Envisioneers initiative, BIGD hosted a two-day learning event on the fundamentals of research communications. Out of nearly 90 applicants, 36 talented young researchers and communication specialists were selected from 16 leading organizations, including research institutes, academic institutions, and think tanks. The workshop focused on the effective use of data visualisation, principles and best practices of writing, creating effective presentation slides, and public speaking techniques for effective research communication. The two-day crash course featured lots of individual and group exercises to help participants implement their learnings in real time.
