Current problems of science communication

30-11-2022 / 02-12-2022

Palazzo Corsini

Via della Lungara 10 – Rome

The numerous emergencies that have characterized the last few years, including the recent pandemic, have highlighted the central role of correct scientific communication for the formation of informed choices on issues that form the basis of our social life such as health, climate, sources of energy, and to avoid the spread of anti-scientific preconceptions capable of generating negative social behaviour.
The general purpose of the initiative is a methodological reflection on scientific communication. Particular attention will be given to the following topics and the challenges arising from them:

  • relations between science, society and politics;
  • communication of scientific research results;
  • scientific journalism and scientific publishing;
  • multimedia languages, non-journalistic writing and storytelling of science.

Sveva Avveduto will participate in session 10 “Reality and fiction in the representation of scientific work"
