Not only was #SMP2025 last week in Ottawa, but I also ran my @genevawaterhub.bsky.social supported workshop on #emotions and #gender in #water diplomacy.

Last week I spent 2 days with 40+ other #academics from across Canada to learn how to communicate research simply and concisely to politicians and share the importance of #science in #policy as part of #ScienceMeetsParliament. I met so many talented and kind individuals!

The sessions throughout SMP were thought provoking and insightful, and it was very interesting to hear from all speakers. We look forward to nurturing current partnerships and exploring new connections to champion research and innovation in Australia.

That’s a wrap on Science Meets Parliament 🤝
2 packed days in Canberra with panels featuring Ministers/Senators and R&D leaders, all aiming to infuse more evidence into decision making. Highlights were meeting with my local MP, connecting with non-ecologist ECRs & the fabulous gala dinner! #SMP2025
Taking the important issue of #reablement and #rehabilitation for people living with #dementia to #Parliament house as part of #SMP2025. Thanks to @allegraspender.bsky.social for meeting with us. #ScienceTechnologyAustralia #UNSWAgeingFuturesInstitute #HammondCare #NationalCentreForHealthyAgeing
It was great to chat with Sharon Claydon MP this morning about the importance of Antarctic science; how we can support women in polar research, fieldwork, and STEM generally; and the great work that AINSE are doing, alongside @polarbecologist.bsky.social & Georgia.

Science Meets Parliament 2025. When I think about the last two days and the impact #scientists can make, I thought about putting these two pictures together.
Bringing what we do front of mind to the people making decisions for all Australia’s. More to come.

A healthy democracy is part of what makes Science Meets Parliament possible. Let’s not take it for granted, says STA President Sharath Srirsm. Hear, hear! Timely and thought-provoking. #smp2025
Meanwhile, Brian Schmidt tells us he loves space but didn’t want to be an astronaut because he gets car sick! 😂 #smp2025
The intersection between science and engineering in space is so important because you’re building infrastructure, says astronaut Katherine Bennell-Pegg - in conversation with Brian Schmidt at Parliament House #SMP2025
Welcome to Poliwood, scientists!
Back at Parliament House with a few hundred of my favourite scientists, technologists, and engineers for the 25th Science Meets Parliament. #smp2025

You know you’re an ecologist when you bring a collection of leaves to Day 2️⃣ of #SMP2025 at Parliament House 🍃
Fantastic first day of #SMP2025 Bill Shorten's masterclass on civics was a highlight. Great to have the opportunity to chat with Minister Ed Husic at the gala dinner about the benefits of basic science and the culture of curiosity to drive innovation and economic benefits for all Australians 🧠🔬🤓
First day of #SMP2025 done and dusted!
Incredible presentations, amazing networking and proximity to policymakers today has been a bit of a pinch me moment.
Very grateful to be here and can’t wait for tomorrow!

Fantastic speech from Her Excellency Sam Mostyn, Govenor General, at the gala dinner for Science Meets Parliament #SMP2025
Names for the moon in several Aboriginal languages, next to an image of the moon. Examples are Ngalindi (Yolgnu Matha language) and Kakirra (Kaurna people of SA)
Do you know the name of the moon in an Indigenous language? If you said no, you’re not alone.
Despite their long history, very few Australians are taught the names and stories of Aboriginal & Torres Strait Islander people, a poignant point from John-Paul Janke at Science Meets Parliament

90 minutes to get home, get glam, and get to the National Museum? No problems, with a classic Georgy slapdash black tie effort*
Now off to the #SMP2025 Gala Dinner to see how many times I can work the word 'megadrought' into casual conversation
