CSaP held two professional development workshops for PhD students and postdocs to expose early-career researchers to the role science plays in government decision-making and how academics can interact with policy makers.

CSaP brought together care sector experts, senior policy makers, practitioners, and researchers to discuss what the care sector, NHS and government should do to speed up the development, evaluation and uptake of effective technologies for social care.

Following a further competitive election process, the Centre has announced the names of the successful applicants to the Policy Fellowship for Easter Term 2019.

This roundtable discussion focussed on what future threats and challenges quantum technologies pose to the UK.

CSaP worked with the Department for Digital, Media, Culture, and Sport to organise a Workshop to explore how to regulate social media and to act against online manipulation. This was supported by the Strategic Research Initiatives and Networks organisation and the Centre for Humanities and Social Change.

In the final seminar of the series, David Victor, Professor of International Relations and Co-director, Laboratory on International Law and Regulation, UC San Diego, discusses the current state of international cooperation on climate change and how to make it more effective.

In the penultimate seminar of the Christ’s Climate Seminar Series, Rebecca Willis, Independent Environmental Researcher, discusses the findings of a collaborative research project to investigate how politicians think and act on climate change.

In this seminar, Craig Bennett, CEO at Friends of the Earth, explains the importance of engaging and empowering the public in the fight against climate change.

In the first of this year’s Christ's Climate Seminars, Eliot Whittington, Development Director at Cambridge’s Institute for Sustainability Leadership, talked about how business is learning to cooperate in pursuit of climate action.
