A project of Science Cafe Communication
A project of Science Café Communication
Revised 30/11/2004
What does Science mean to you ? What does Science and Technology mean to every day life of citizens ? Who are “doing” the Science and Technology ? Don’t you have question and interrogation like this ? You find the actors and impacts of Science and Technology very near to your daily life, and that they support the society in your neighborhood ? otherwise your find them very troublesome ? In order to ask and respond to these questions, the project “Science Café Communication” will engage in every kind of investigation, research and consulting in social meeting.
In this project, as well as our sister project of “Science Communication and Writing for Citizens” brought by Science Communication Japan (NPO), we propose you to offer the occasion of public debate reviewing and rethinking the role and various aspects of Science and Technology seen from the different position. We intend to invite the specialists and stakeholders in research and development, who come to Japan from abroad for doing the various activities in University, research institutions and enterprises. This public debate will be done in the form of “Science Café” so please feel free to exchange your opinions and to join in the series of intervention.
In addition, this café talk place for common language in English, some of you may be inspired to develop your capacity of scientific debate in English, to promote your language competence and expressions in writing papers and presentations. We are pleased to offer you, after every session of café debate, an occasion of co-learning of the concept of “Science, Technology and Society”. For verifying this term we strongly recommend you to browse the site of EURO SCIENCE and enjoy to refer to the pages of public involvement in Science and Technology. http://www.esof2004.org/
