BCF\u2019s work is rooted in over 20 years of experiential learning about how to link knowledge to action. As staff of the Lenfest Ocean Program, we tested multiple approaches to grantmaking and engagement and wrote about what we learned. We will continue to share our experiences to help foster the vibrant and ongoing conversation about how science can better serve communities.<\/p>\n
