SUMMARY:Human Rights\, Global Wrongs: The Universal Declaration of Human Rights at 70
DESCRIPTION:Professor Rosa Freedman\, School of Law\nThe Universal Declaration of Human Rights was created in 1948\, as a method to combat the horrors of Nazi Germany ever happening again. The Declaration sets out that there are fundamental rights that all people have by virtue of being born human. Seventy years later and we see violations of those rights across the world. Torture\, enforced disappearances\, gender-based violence\, repression of political dissidents\, and many more. Recent years have seen the rise of totalitarian regimes and of state-sponsored racism and xenophobia. \n\n\n\nIn this public lecture Professor Rosa Freedman will explain what human rights are\, why they matter\, and the challenges we face in ensuring that individuals have their fundamental rights protected. \n\n\n\n\nPart of the University of Reading’s Public Lecture series \nADMISSION FREE – BOOKING ADVISABLE \n\n\n\nRegister to attend here.

SUMMARY:Stakeholder Mapping for Research Staff
DESCRIPTION:Researcher Development Programme- Communications Training Sessions \nUnderstanding your key stakeholders and what they want from your research is a fundamental part of any successful communications or engagement plan. This session will introduce some simple tools to help identify and prioritise potential stakeholders and to decide how best to work with them. We will use case studies from research teams across the University and live examples from participants to show how understanding your audiences can help you to improve your research and its impact. Led by Research Communications and Engagement team. This is a new session that is currently being developed. \nPlease reserve the date and time if you think this may be of interest to you\, as it is not yet available to book via Employee Self Service.

SUMMARY:Engaging with Policymakers
DESCRIPTION:Researcher Development Programme- Communications Training Sessions \nAt some point in their career\, many researchers will be asked to provide advice to policymakers in government\, the public sector or the private sector. In this session\, we will discuss some of the different ways that researchers can engage with Westminster and with Whitehall. We will look at how policymakers access information to help them make decisions and explore some of the different routes that researchers can use to engage in parliamentary processes. We will also discuss how to write an impartial summary of your research and situate your work in a wider policy context. We will work with practical examples with plenty of time for discussion. \nTo book a place on this session\, please contact peopledevelopment@reading.ac.uk

SUMMARY:Our Changing Climate: Past\, Present and Future
DESCRIPTION:Part of the University of Reading’s Public Lecture Series  \nADMISSION FREE – BOOKING ADVISABLE \n\n\n\n\n\nThe hot and dry summer of 2018 was a reminder of just how vulnerable society can be to unusual weather through overheating buildings\, transport disruption\, lower crop production and risks to human health. Such heatwaves are now hotter because the planet has warmed over the past century\, largely due to human-caused emissions of greenhouse gases. Other consequences of a warming world are that extreme rainfall events have become more frequent and sea levels have risen as the oceans expand and the glaciers melt. \nThis lecture will outline how our climate has already changed\, and what we might expect in the future. Further changes are inevitable. The Paris Agreement aims to stabilise global temperatures but society’s choices will decide how much change we should expect. \nProfessor Ed Hawkins is a climate scientist in the National Centre for Atmospheric Science\, based in the Department of Meteorology at the University of Reading. He is a Lead Author for the forthcoming Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change 6th Assessment Report and was awarded the Royal Society’s Kavli Medal in 2018. \nRegister to attend here.

SUMMARY:PUBLIC LECTURE - The Bee’s Needs: How to Save the World’s Pollinators
DESCRIPTION:Honey Bee pollinating sunflower.\nThe Bee’s Needs: How to Save the World’s Pollinators \nWednesday 14 March\, 19:30-20:45 \nLocation: G11\, Henley Business School\, Whiteknights campus \nThis event is free to attend.  \nRegistration in advance is not required\, but is recommended as public lectures are often full. Click here to book your place > \nBees and other insects are crucially important\, helping pollinate crops and support our wild ecosystems. The University of Reading is at the forefront of research into the decline of insect pollinators and understanding how valuable they are for crop production. \nThe lecture will outline current evidence on the status of pollinating insects in the UK and across the globe. The crucial role pollinators play for crop production will be explored as well as ways we can help protect these iconic species for the important role they have providing vital ecosystem services. \nDr Mike Garratt\, a Senior Research Fellow in the School of Agriculture Policy and Development\, will present the latest research on pollinators and what we can do to help protect them.
