Science communication training for talking and listening

This session will introduce the ESConet Trainers (www.esconet.org) approach to science communication training, based on many years’ experience of working with European research networks. Unlike some other media training programmes, based on the “bag of tricks” approach, it emphasises genuine two-way communication - both talking and listening. The European Union’s “Science and Society Action Plan” underpins much of what is now required from European researchers in terms of their interactions with society at large and with their fellow citizens. This places many demands on researchers for which they get little, if any, training: interactions with the mass media, dialogue with citizens, etc. This session will give participants a chance to make contact and catch up with the latest thinking on training for communicating with their fellow citizens. It will be followed by two practical workshops in science communication (July 4) with a limited number of places and preliminary subscription needed.
