  • An introduction to the Crisis Navigator for Rapid Mobilisation of Science Communication developed within COALESCE, which addresses how science communication can contribute during crises
  • A talk on a good-practice guide for journalists in times of crisis

Session 3: SciComm match-making

  • A workshop to co-design a matchmaking tool to make it easier for researchers and journalists to connect with one another

Express your interest to participate in the online event here! This event is held in the framework of COALESCE, a four-year project funded by the European Commission to establish a European Competence Centre for Science Communication and an associated Science Communication Academy. 

The launch of the online platform represents the first step in the ongoing evolution of the Competence Centre. In order to best meet the needs of the various communities of practice involved in science communication, we would like to invite you to help co-create the Competence Centre with us and shape the future of European science communication.
