Narrative approaches to communicating scientific research

About the event

This training session examines the role of narrative in communicating food and health research, drawing on evidence from science communication, health communication, and cognitive psychology. Participants will:

• Explore how narrative structures influence attention, comprehension, recall and meaning-making.
• Understand under which conditions storytelling can enhance, rather than distort, scientific communication.
• Critically assess the benefits and limitations of narrative formats in nutrition and health contexts.

As with all our trainings, the session will integrate examples from public campaigns, professional practice, and social media experiences, drawing on our three decades of experience in food and health communication.
