The Public Communication of Science and Technology Conference (PCST 2023) is taking place between the 11th and the 14th of April 2023 in Rotterdam. The global science communication community will come together for PCST 2023 and three full days, composed of pre-conference workshops, an exciting line-up of plenary speakers, visual and oral presentations, performances and demonstrations. Workshop topics in particular address storytelling, the value of listening, inclusive science engagement, using art to share science and communicating science in plain language.
Overall, the development of science and technology heavily depends on the ability and opportunities of scientists, engineers, business developers, policy makers and the public to create, participate and collaborate with their colleagues, peers, alliances, in research-to-research relations and research-to-stakeholder relations. Thus, PCST builds on the concept of the common ground, and supports the idea of a collaborative network of researchers and practitioners in science communication who study or work within the domains of science journalism, engagement, citizen science, informal science education and innovation.
Creating common ground on science communication research and its practices further aligns with the ongoing discovery of the science communication domain. PCST invites all interested stakeholders to this discovery, and enhances both research-based and practice-based explorations.
