CONTACT:Lisa Harris
DESCRIPTION:In this talk I will be exploring the interactions between know
 ledge\, technology\, policy\, and practice\, in the environmental sphere\,
  with a specific focus on nature conservation and sustainable agriculture.
  I will use case studies to demonstrate when environmental science has bee
 n used in policy and practice\, including the influence of the Lawton Revi
 ew on UK Government policy\, and examples from recent research conducted f
 or both Defra's Sustainable Intensification Platform and the EU Biodiversi
 ty Observation Network. I will present practical ideas for how environment
 al scientists can improve the uptake of science\, such as how to improve t
 he design of decision support systems\, and how to frame and communicate s
 cience persuasively. I will also consider the place for Geographical resea
 rch on environmental science-policy-practice interfaces.
