In this politically charged environment academics may exercising their voice to “speak truth to power,” but even a cursory view of research use in policymaking reveals that few are listening. This talk provides a unique perspective of research and policymaking that addresses the problems with research for policy use, the opportune time to build relationships with politicians, how to enlist allies, writing for policy audiences, and what to do once you get in the door. The talk is filled with concrete insights from David R.
