Publisher John Wiley and Sons Inc. has announced a partnership with the March for Science, a global nonpartisan movement that highlights the critical role science plays in improving our lives, understanding our world, and informing policymaking in communities across the world.
On April 14, 2018, more than 220 cities around the world hosted marches where scientists and supporters of science came together. At the rally in Washington, D.C., Wiley sponsored a tent on behalf of the National Council for Science and the Environment. In the long term, Wiley will support Vote for Science, a new program that seeks to secure the long-term funding of science policy, by providing access to scholarly and scientific content.
The National Council for Science and the Environment advances informed environmental policy through interdisciplinary research, scientific assessment, communication, and training. NCSE specialises in engagement that focuses on collaboration between diverse institutions and individuals using research and education.
In addition to Wiley's sponsorship of the April 14 Washington, D.C. rally, Wiley is also providing access to scholarly and scientific content for the Vote for Science campaign, a new program of the March for Science that represents the next step for science advocacy: securing the long-term future of science policy by linking science support with civic behaviour. The program seeks to create a direct connection between science supporters and policymakers. Understanding the scientific context of the issues facing the world today, from the environment to technology and innovation, is foundational for promoting a greater understanding of research and the role it plays in the lives of people around the world. By providing access to research and information on these topics, Wiley can support the role evidence-based, peer-reviewed research plays in decision-making.
