HSRC Policy Briefs

• HSRC Policy Briefs

The Science in Society unit, located in the HSRC’s Impact Centre, aims to strengthen the science/society interface and contribute towards enhancing the impact of science. The knowledge brokering roles of the unit include the development of the HSRC’s policy briefs, hosting policy brief writing workshops and sharing strategies for shaping impactful policy briefs.

HSRC policy briefs synthesise research in a way that is accessible to a broad range of stakeholders, and distil policy recommendations for use by a wide range of decision makers.
