Activity: Other › Types of Public engagement and outreach - Schools engagement
Description
For the past two years I have been working with educational practitioners and school pupils to discuss how best to translate my research into practice. In 2014 I obtained a Beltane Fellowship (the purpose of which is to promote public engagement) and used this to generate educational training materials. Following a successful pilot project the gender equality training was rolled out into Glasgow by Glasgow City Council trainers who used my research as the basis for the work. There is also a development of Gender Friendly Nursery awards which use my research findings as one of the reasons that such training is necessary.
