My role in the Insect Pollinators Initiative (IPI) is as its Science Co-ordinator (2010-2014).
My responsibilities to the IPI are:
- Create or facilitate scientific outputs in addition to those arising from individual research projects,
- Maintain an overview of the individual research projects and report to the funders on their progress
- Promote and engage in knowledge exchange activities (e.g. with policymakers, NGOs and the media) to maximise the impact of the IPI.

If you are interested in particular studies, you can contact the individual scientists leading the research via the research project pages.
Knowledge Exchange - Dr Lynn V. Dicks

Profile: My work is focused on making wildlife conservation more effective. I do this by making relevant scientific knowledge accessible to conservationists, and by engaging decision-makers in guiding research towards questions of importance in policy and practice.
With funding from NERC, I have created a Pollinator Conservation Delivery Group to link pollinator conservation efforts in the private and public sectors with research from the Insect Pollinators Initiative.
