Attitudes of young people to science | Katherine Mathieson | British Science Association

Research Comms

In March 2022 the British Science Association published a report examining the attitudes of young people in the UK to science. In this episode of the Research Comms podcast, the BSA’s outgoing Chief Executive, Katherine Mathieson, talks about the reports findings, speculating on why young people do not feel sufficiently engaged with science, the impact of the Covid pandemic on their appetite for science, and why now is a golden opportunity for us to rework young people’s relationship with science.
