Bridging the knowledge divide: experiences in communicating crop biotechnology

This handbook aims to highlight the strategies and approaches in communicating crop biotechnology that the Global Knowledge Center on Crop Biotechnology (KC) and Biotechnology Information Centers (BICs) have evolved from their vast experiences as well as knowledge-base available in science communication. Hence, the handbook while primarily meant as a guidepost for the network of BICs, can also be used by other institutions interested in science communication in general, and biotechnology communication in particular. This publication hopes to contribute to bridging the knowledge divide that limits stakeholders from benefiting from proven technologies and scientific advancements due to the lack of planned and deliberate communication initiatives.
