Karin Jonsell

I am a Communications Officer at SLU Future Food, a platform that stimulates and develops interdisciplinary research and collaboration for economically, ecologically and socially sustainable food systems. Our mission at SLU is to contribute to:

• Developing inter- and multidisciplinary working methods to address complex challenges
• Generating science-based decision support and identify knowledge needs for issues of importance to society
• Stimulating research networking and cooperation
• Supporting and contributing in attracting research funding both nationally and internationally

I have a PhD but have worked for a long time as a communicator and coordinator, both in Sweden and abroad. At SLU Future Food I am organising large and small events (including webinars, fairs and conferences), doing science for policy (for example, developing policy briefs together with researchers) and developing strategic communication plans and advice. When time allows, I also do layout and graphics, web publishing, press releases and publishing on social media.
