Energy policy masterclass

In partnership with the Royal Geographical Society’s Energy Geographies Research Group, the GSI and CSaP are hosting a free energy policy masterclass, followed by networking drinks). The masterclass will be interactive and put the spotlight on the Social Sciences and Humanities (SSH) as an energy policy evidence base, which are too often overlooked in favour of more technical energy research disciplines.

A number of travel and accommodation bursaries are available for UK-based attendees; the deadline for applications is also 16 November 2018. It is anticipated the event will be popular and encourage bursary application/ or registering for a place early.
