Science&You aims at mixing research and practice in science communication, popularization and engagement, and is the place to share innovative and ground-breaking topics, exchange best practices and lessons learned, and why not invent new ideas and create new partnerships.

Proposals from all perspectives are welcome. Whether you are a researcher in science communication, a researcher or professional of any field willing to share your experience in popularization and public engagement, a professional in a museum or a science center, a volunteer in an association running science workshops for children, a journalist writing about science subjects, a communications officer in a research laboratory... You are welcome to the conversation!

Proposals (and contributions) can be made either in French or in English.

The call for proposals is open until February 19th, midnight (GMT +1). Submitted proposals will then be evaluated by April 2021 by the Scientific Committee, chaired by Professor Martin W. Bauer, London School of Economics and Political Science.
