For me, science capital is not only a really important way of recognizing the assets that your audience has, but also understanding your audience better and where they're coming from.

So a couple of years ago, I was lucky enough to team up with Dr. Heather Bray and Taryn Bazin from the University of Western Australia to look at the societal value and impact of SciTech in the Western Australian community.

And we use Science Capital as a lens to try and understand how SciTech fits into people's science journeys.

And we found that people with all different levels or amounts of science capital were visiting SciTech.
