About
The Department of Energy’s Office of Science and The Kavli Foundation share a common interest in ensuring that basic science engagement is supported, sustainable, and effective. SciPEP (Science Public Engagement Partnership) was built on that common interest and endeavored to ensure scientists have support to be effective communicators and, if appropriate, active in engaging the public. SciPEP also sought to recognize and empower communication and engagement professionals to play an important role in supporting engagement efforts. Lastly, SciPEP led efforts to understand how, why, and when publics-at-large seek, find, and make use of information about basic research.
