Workshop: Intertwined roles of science journalism and science
communication

Responsible Research and Innovation (RRI) calls for societal actors -
researchers, citizens, policy makers, business, third sector
organisations, etc. - to work together during the whole research and
innovation process in order to better align both the process and its
outcomes with the values, needs and expectations of society.

The aim of RRI is to create an r&d environment where societal actors and
innovators are mutually responsive to each other with the view to the
(ethical) acceptability, sustainability, societal desirability of the
innovation process.

One of the core components of RRI is public engagement, which is
streamlined via science communication.

Journalists and communicators are watchdogs and critical gatekeepers,
but also mediators and communicators of RRI. How do these roles
intertwine?

The intertwined roles of science journalism and science communications
are in focus on May 2, 2016, in a workshop where representatives from
science journalism and science communication along with scientists
reflect on their role in public engagement. A special emphasis is laid
on science journalism: are science journalists part of the RRI process
or outside it?
