Description du projet
Rapprocher la science des citoyens en Italie
La science est présente dans toutes les facettes de notre vie. C’est pourquoi l’engagement du public envers la science est important. De plus, des interactions significatives peuvent être mutuellement bénéfiques pour les scientifiques et les membres du public. L’établissement de liens entre la science et la société peut également sensibiliser le public à la pertinence des développements scientifiques. Rassemblant un consortium d’institutions publiques italiennes de recherche et d’enseignement, le projet NET, financé par l’UE, permettra de créer un réseau reliant le monde de la recherche et la société. En se concentrant sur le thème du changement climatique, le projet organisera la Nuit européenne des chercheurs NET et des activités connexes dans des villes de toute l’Italie, du nord au sud. Le projet utilisera des outils de communication en ligne et hors ligne pour atteindre les citoyens de tous âges et de tous horizons, en se focalisant sur les élèves et les étudiants.
Objectif
The goal of the NET project is to lay the foundation of a NETwork connecting research world and society, building a stable and empatic communication path among institutions, researchers and citizens, also thanks to the capillary physical presence of the partners in the territory, since the NET consortium is made by well-recognised public italian research and academic institutions. This network will offer a stable exchange path through which researchers can share their passion for science, their work and life with citizens, who, in turn will use the path to get the scientific viewpoint from their “informed neighbors”. Conveying this idea is the first step to build and plan a research-based society, by increasing the number of students taking up research careers. The path will be paved by using conventional and unconventional, online and offline communications tools, to reach every citizen, regardless of age, gender, cultural or economic conditions, even if particular attention will be devotaed at students and pupils. NET will bring researchers closer to the general public and increase awareness of research and innovation activities, increasing the public recognition of researchers, creating an understanding of the impact of researchers' work on citizens ́ daily life, promoting choices for a sustainable future. In fact the main theme of the project is the most relevant and global question of this millennium: the climate change, in order to give citizens information to be aware protagonists of collective political choices and correct individual behavior. NET European Researchers’ Night and related activities will take place in 16 italian cities (from North to South: Brasimone, Chioggia, La Spezia, Ozzano, Civitavecchia, Fiumicino, Frascati, Grottaminarda, Monte Porzio Catone, Rieti, Rocca di Papa, Roma, Tarquinia, Viterbo, Palermo, Portici, Trisaia) and Vulcano and Stromboli Aeolian Islands, so as to wrap the whole of Italy in the NET.
