Corso di Divulgazione scientifica 5 ottobre 2021
The Euroscitizen Media working group is happy to announce that it will be organising a Second Short Science-Media Training School (online) held in two days — the 20th of October and 27th of October 2021
The training school
This Training School will offer you hand-on practice and it will be conducted by two experienced trainers with scientific and media background. The Training School has three main objectives:
— Information sharing – to spread awareness across trainees who are interested in disseminating reliable scientific information in media, by providing them with skills and tools to communicate science effectively;
— Discussion – to exchange perspectives on topics from two different angles and two, not so different, attitudes represented by journalists and scientists, promoting the communication between these two groups;
— Community building – to help scientists and journalists find best ways of engaging in science communication together, bringing to it the best of the two worlds.
Note that this Second Training School is independent from our previous online science-media training school, with trainers with different expertises, covering different and complementary topics.
Who can apply?
Training is dedicated to students of journalism (in the last year of master’s studies or equally acceptable level) and science students (last year of master’s studies or equally acceptable level or every year of PhD studies). The school is also open to all stages of early science/journalism careers, but preference will be given to students.
Note that the trainees must be engaged in an official research programme as a student, a PhD student or postdoctoral fellow, or can be employed by, or affiliated to, an institution, organisation or legal entity which has within its remit a clear association with performing research.

COST training schools are aimed at EuroscitizenAction members
