Throughout the @aaas.org Forum on Science & Technology, there were 316 attendees, 80 speakers, and 47 sessions! As STPF Director Rashada Alexander said, "this year’s event illuminated clear pathways to activation with agriculture and food as the lens."

At @aaas.org STPF fellows' orientation this September, STPF alumni Esther Zeledon and Paul Rivera from Be.Act.Change led fellows in a two-part interactive session on gaps between scientific reasoning and policy logic, ways to accurately frame evidence, and leading from within amidst ambiguity.
