Every year during Science Meets Parliament, scientist from around the country travel to Canberra to meet politicians and policy makers.
During the two days, there is a lot at stake for the participants, as politicians can influence budgets and policy priorities. It is like ‘Australia Got Talent’ for scientists.
Working with the team at Australia’s Science Channel over the two days we followed 4 up and coming around Parliament House, and into the Prime Minister’s rooms. We follow them when they prepare their pitches and straight after the meetings.
