Co-Creative Approaches: Shaping the Future of Science Engagement

This Round Table discussion will focus on the future of the Science Engagement field, with the Falling Walls Engage and the International Year of Science Engagement teams together with Science Engagement practitioners and relevant partners. How can we foster Science Engagement initiatives that aim to tackle local-global challenges and can contribute to a greater societal impact? Which initiatives can we develop to further potentiate the institutionalization of the Science Engagement field? In the Round Table, participants will discuss how to promote more participatory and co-creative approaches towards tackling the grand societal challenges associated with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals. The discussion will include the perspectives from several stakeholders such as Science Engagement practitioners and institutions, science institutions, civil society organizations, policymakers, funding institutions, and industry leaders. The learnings and conclusions of this Round Table will help to shape the 2022-2025 strategies of the Falling Walls Engage and International Year of Science Engagement initiatives.
