On June 26, TraCe welcomed A. Dirk Moses at PRIF for an informal coffee chat on the challenges for academics in public life. A. Dirk Moses is Visiting Fellow from June until July 2025.
The discussion during the event was lively. Participants engaged in a candid exchange about the challenges and opportunities that arise when making research accessible to wider audiences, via newspapers or social media.
Dirk Moses shared insights on his experiences in navigating public life as a researcher, handling public controversy, and communicating research beyond academia. Designed especially for Early Career Researchers, the session provided valuable insights and encouragement to reflect on their role in public debates.
