Science and public engagement

Abstract

Over the last decade, social media has changed our way of communicating, both privately and professionally. Science has also been overwhelmed by this abrupt change. Today's calls for national and international projects require a strong commitment also to the public engagement. A good practice of science and public engagement can be a benefit for a scientific career, an opportunity for young people who want to approach this profession, and not less an important rawplug in the relation with politics.
