Second Regional Workshop on Science Communication in South East Europe

Last year, the specialized SEE regional training workshop on science journalism organized in October in Belgrade (Serbia) was very well received by the 16 journalists and communicators from South East Europe who attended.

The realization of this type of a specialized regional capacity-building workshop was the first tangible result to discussions held during a parallel session organized by the Venice Office at the PCST 2012 (April 2012; Florence, Italy) and as a follow up to the recommendations endorsed during the SEE Ministerial Round Table on Science, Technology and Innovation convened on 22-23 November 2012 in Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina.

This regional training workshop will remain politically independent and objective, building the capacity to critically reflect on scientific activities and results as well as science programmes and policies.
