The NSF grant supported development and analyses of focus groups held during the 2019 symposium and three surveys conducted before and after the event. The Kit summarizes symposium attendees&#8217; insights about inclusive science communication and offers an introduction to ISC strategies and techniques. The document also describes strategies for facilitating difficult dialogues across difference, a key focus of the 2019 symposium.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-8133\" src=\"https:\/\/web.uri.edu\/metcalf\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/1211\/logos__nsf_4_color_bitmap_logo-298x300.jpg\" alt=\"NSF logo: Earth's image is in the background with white NSF letters on top.
