THE KAVLI FOUNDATION

Driving Science Strategy

Scope: Leaders at a philanthropic science foundation needed to gather stakeholder perspectives on a new research initiative. These perspectives were needed to help shape future funding and public outreach. I conducted 36 interviews with scientists, foundation and nonprofit leaders, and writers and journalists and synthesized responses in a 23-page final report that contained an in-depth analysis and actionable insights.

Services: Research and stakeholder engagement; Qualitative analysis; Writing and editing
