Boosting the Science Communication Ecosystem in Europe - full steam ahead. A policy report
Related Initiative
What is this about?
This is a policy report produced under the COALESCE initiative. It consolidates key findings from eight former European “Science with and for Society” (SwafS-19) projects (including QUEST, CONCISE, NEWSERA, GlobalSCAPE, RETHINK, PARCOS, ENJOI and TRESCA) funded under the EU’s H2020 programme. The report reflects on the role of science communication (scicomm) across Europe assessing past efforts, identifying structural and institutional barriers (such as lack of stable support, limited career paths, and insufficient integration of scicomm into academia and R&I systems), and making a case for systemic change. It outlines motivations for effective scicomm (public trust, scientific literacy, democratic engagement, innovation, etc.), presents evidence collected through stakeholder consultations across many EU countries, and provides a set of policy recommendations aiming to professionalise and institutionalise science communication across Europe.
Why is this important?
This report is important because it offers a comprehensive, evidence-based roadmap for strengthening the European science communication ecosystem. As challenges like misinformation, public distrust in science, and complex societal problems (climate, health, AI, etc.) intensify, effective science communication becomes critical to ensure public understanding, trust and democratic decision-making. By proposing structural changes such as stable institutional support, career paths for science communicators, cross-sector collaboration, fact-checking, and citizen engagement the report can help embed science communication sustainably in research and innovation systems, increasing the impact, reach and societal relevance of science.
For whom is this important?
