Read this week through one lens: a hack, a freeze, a blocklist, a deadline, a rulebook. Each is a question about evidence: who observed it, when, how, and can anyone check. That is the layer #PramaanOne builds. Never Trust. Always Verify. #EvidenceWeek #FirstObserver

During @senseaboutsci.bsky.social #EvidenceWeek we presented data on how a research-driven approach to STEM education can impact students’ skills, confidence and knowledge of the careers open to them.

Thank you to all the MPs and peers who we spoke to us on the day.

#EvidenceWeek in Parliament is such an important initiative, bringing together the public, researchers and parliamentarians to discuss how evidence is used at Westminster. Includes training sessions for parliamentary staff on how to handle and interpret evidence – crucial step in the briefing of MPs

This year, more parliamentary offices than ever joined #EvidenceWeek. It reached 1 in every 5 MP offices, meeting a growing demand for research in policy.

From our reverse committee hearing, to trainings and policy briefings, a huge thanks to everyone who helped make it a success this year!

Fascinating to take part in #EvidenceWeek and discuss how publicly funded research can tackle our major challenges, from improving access to essential services to combating climate change.
 
It was great to meet with Windracers and SeaCURE to hear how they're innovating in their sectors.

Last week, Dr Glory Aigbedion joined us in Parliament to ask her question on community involvement in research to a panel of experts as part of our #EvidenceWeek 'reverse' committee hearing.

Thank you to all who submitted their questions on the evidence behind policies.
