Project objective
The objective of NET 2021 is the consolidation and widening of the ScieNcE Together NETwork, which was launched in 2020 by a group public Italian research and academic institutions to build a stable and emphatic dialogue among researchers, citizens and society at large. This years' theme will be climate change and environmental degradation but we are aware that in 2021 the pandemic impacts will still be felt, so to achieve our objective we need to develop a communication approach that both takes into account the pandemic narrative and counterbalance it. We'll engage our public with inspiring examples of research, a positive narrative that should involve them in the discussion and offset helpless feelings caused by covid-19.We aim to make people aware that sustainable growth is deeply dependant on society's response to the climate and environmental challenges and we will keep the debate alive providing correct scientific facts and involving the public in the fight against fake news through rigor and scientific credibility.
