AMBER attended and presented at SCI:COM22 in the Aviva Stadium on Wednesday 7th December. This years conference was engaging and insightful lead by Jonathan McCrea and SCI:COM team and sponsors Science Foundation Ireland and Pfizer.
Fantastic finale to the day with a breakout session on ‘Circular Economy’ focusing on Engaged Research by AMBER Centre’s own Sadhbh Crean & Amy Fahy.
Sharing insights that the AMBER Centre has gained through research with stakeholders across industry, academia, government, and civil society. The session incorporated the sharing of practices and methodology involved in carrying out an engaged research project on the circular economy. Additionally, reflections from varying stakeholders on their perspectives of partaking in this engaged research project will be explored. The session proved an excellent opportunity to not only present the case study example of engaged research on the circular economy, but gain further awareness, through dialogic exercises, of the attendees’ own views on participation and representation in circular economy research and policymaking.
Including input from two members of AMBERs youth committee participating for almost 6 years now since 4th class!
AMBER has a strong emphasis on collaboration. Central to AMBER’s research remit are collaborative projects performed with industry partners, and working with academic, industry and wider stakeholder on international and national research programmes.
