#TalkingScience with high integrity and ethics standards
This video presents the #TalkingScience campaign and showcases Science Europe Member Organisations’ initiatives in the area of public engagement, with a focus on research ethics and integrity. These initiatives are divided into three categories: 1. Communicating to a broader audience 2. Public participation in research 3. Interaction with decision makers Together, the initiatives cover a wide range of issues: citizen science projects, a framework for science communication courses in higher education, patient and public involvement in clinical research proposals, national awards for science communication, a guide on citizen science, and much more. The campaign aims to value what our members do and show the breadth of member-led initiatives in public engagement. It also contributes to closing the gap between science and society. We invite you to explore the initiatives on the Science Europe website at https://scieur.org/talking-science-ethics.
