*Scope of the workshop: *

Science is exciting, enlightening, complex, fundamental, precise, 
logical, and creative, all at the same time. However, for the public to 
get in touch with it and understand why it encompasses all these 
concepts, efforts need to be made to bridge science and society. With 
this aim, communication teams at research infrastructures work with a 
range of methods and channels. They make complex information more 
tangible and disseminate it as broadly as possible so that the public 
can understand and be engaged.

This workshop aims to be a hands-on forum for communications, public 
relations and engagement professionals staff to share their experiences 
and expertise. The aim is that participants return home with new ideas 
for their work, by learning how and with which means other research 
institutions are communicating the importance of science and of research 
infrastructures to society.

*IMPORTANT*: Please let us know, if you wish to receive information on 
the PARI workshops in the future, by simply replying to this message. 
The reply does not need to contain any text. Thank you!
