Long Citation (for publication and press release)
Recognized globally for her pioneering contributions to statistics, Agnes M. Herzberg founded, shaped and nurtured the international, Conferences on Statistics, Science and Public Policy held at Herstmonceux Castle, England. In this unique context, she assembles an unusual mix of scientists, politicians, civil servants and journalists from several countries who annually address significant policy issues. Recurring themes of their concerns are such compelling issues as promotion of better understanding between science and public policy, public trust, society, education, media, economics, government and politics. The outcomes of these invaluable conferences have demonstrably furthered knowledge, trust and co-operation across the divides of government, science and public policy.
