hi,
It wold be great if you could set up a “dialogue facilitacion” training course or seminar. It would really help to enable more people to act as public engagement activists and dialogue facilitators in our diverse research/academic areas
thanks

Oliver,
That is an excellent idea, and something I would like to attend myself. I will bring this up at our “Traininng and Staff Development” working group meeting.

Hi heather, Thanks for inviting us to your launch event which we really enjoyed. The dialogue facilitation training is something we too are seeing would be useful. Lets compare how we approach it. Glad to see six hats in use! Best, Erinma, Manchester Beacon.

Hi, I think there is a need to tell people what mathematics is about. There is a wrong perception of the subject, and this is becoming more and more pronounced. It is of utmost importance to deliver a message saying that maths is not done by crazies but by people who do want to solve problems and understand the world. So I wonder if and how I could help.
