Impact: Environmental, Health/Quality of life, Policy and Public Services

Description of impact

We anticipate distilling key findings into policy briefing notes and infographics, a short animation (ca. 2 minutes) and other web-hosted content to increase the reach of project outputs with a view to influencing government, policymakers, media, and anyone wishing to encourage sustainable mask and face-covering wearing in public places. Thus far we have only done some limited engagement, specifically an article for The Conversation.
