Join us for the ENJOI Policy Event on October 4 in Brussels! An interactive discussion about how policy can support a healthy science communication environment.

The ENJOI Policy Event in Brussels

How can policy shape great science communication? The ENJOI Policy Event will revolve around this question. The gathering will take place in Brussels at the BIP Meeting Centre on the 4th of October, starting at 10.30 and ending at 12.30 CET.

In recent years, improving science communication and journalism to address global challenges such as health and pandemics, climate change and the advent of AI has become increasingly urgent. In the past three years, the European project ENJOI worked to define a set of Standard, Principles and Indicators (SPIs) of high-quality science communication and journalism. The ENJOI SPIs are the product of different actions -  such as Engagement Workshops, Labs,  field and participatory research, scientific literary review, evaluation and testing phases - that also led to the creation of the ENJOI Manifesto for an Outstanding Open Science Communication and the ENJOI Observatory.

These results can be used to help policy support a healthy science communication environment, effectively combating global challenges with good science communication and journalism. And this is exactly the main goal of the ENJOI Policy Event in Bruxelles.

We will explore how European policy can help support excellence in science journalism and science communication more broadly.

After the introductory sessions, a round table will be aimed at bringing out insights and perspectives on the current status and future potential of the science communication field, thanks to four key stakeholders in the field of science journalism and communication.

The second part of the meeting will be a collaborative and participatory session designed to collect feedback, opinions, perspectives, critiques, proposals, and ideas from the participants. The purpose of this format is also to give the participants a glimpse of the methodologies implemented over the course of the project, increasing engagement and co-creation.

Attendees’ contributions will enter a final collective publication, where all participants will be given due recognition. We will also distill them into the final ENJOI policy brief.
