I work in the communications team on web content, the Understanding Society blog, social media, events, and publications such as our annual Insights report. I also work in the Policy and Partnerships Unit with academics, funders, government departments, and the third sector to identify opportunities for Understanding Society evidence to be used in the policy process, and to share the impact of research which uses our data.
