About the event
BE SciComm Safari – Spot science communicators in the wild!
After years of meeting up to talk about science communication, it’s time to go see where the action really happens.
With BE SciComm Safari, we’ll be visiting science communication teams “in their natural habitat.” Instead of gathering in a neutral spot, we’ll step inside real workplaces to discover how different organizations bring science to life.
Our first stop: Technopolis.
This Safari will take us behind the scenes to explore how Technopolis approaches its work, what new initiatives (like their AI section) look like from the inside, and which challenges and successes have shaped the process. It’s a chance to exchange best practices, share lessons learned, and get inspired by colleagues who know the field inside out.
This event is designed for professional science communicators (at universities and institutions, museums, but also freelancers, or independent sci commers). SciComm Safari @ Technopolis 📅 Monday, Nov 3rd 📍…
