Communication: sharing your knowledge in different ways.

By sharing your insights, you reach the people who can actually use them: from professionals and policymakers to societal partners and the wider public. 

Communication sets your research in motion. It not only increases the visibility of your work but also boosts the chances that your ideas are applied, further developed, or lead to new collaborations. In short: research with real impact.

Sharing your knowledge 

Effective communication starts with targeted sharing of your knowledge, information, or ideas with those who can make use of them. By sharing your knowledge, you increase the visibility of your research and stimulate its practical application.

Different forms of communication

How can you reach people with your knowledge, information, or ideas? There are various approaches:

  • Mass communication channels: such as online articles, podcasts, webinars, social media, newsletters, or publications in professional and popular media. Contact press office
  • Personal and interactive forms of communication: such as workshops, courses, events, panel discussions, one-on-one advice, or collaborating with ambassadors within a target group.

By combining different formats, you increase the likelihood that your message will land exactly where it will have the most impact.
