The CRC is accepting advice on the most appropriate and involving ways to disseminate the considerable knowledge gained by CRC researchers over the life of the CRC. The Education program is developing and testing innovative training programs and information sessions to be presented to growers, industry representatives and grower communities. Close liaison with our industry partners will ensure these sessions are designed for maximum partner benefit and allow rapid uptake of results.
Community education about biotechnology issues is also vital for promoting CRC research outcomes and understanding community concerns and interests. We work with organisations such as Biotechnology Australia, AgriFood Awareness and Sugar Research and Development Corporation (SRDC). Our aim is to interact with and inform the community about CRC research and seek clarity on issues related to genetic modification and other technologies.
