To investigate the opportunities for increased collaboration on making Swedish research accessible, the Swedish Research Council tasked the magazine Forskning & Framsteg and the association VA (Public & Science) to conduct a study in 2019.
They mapped and interviewed actors that fund, produce, communicate and/ or use research in Sweden. They read investigations and reports produced by others, conducted study visits, mapped models for payment of journalist articles, carried out an opinion poll about interest in science journalism, and investigated what the readers of Forskning & Framsteg thought of the magazine. They also gathered examples from other countries of collaboration for communicating research.
This report in English summarises the work carried out, and the conclusions drawn, in the report Forskning.framsyn, which was published in Swedish.
