The Festival della Scienza organizes a round table about “Science, democracy and citizens’ involvement”.
How to combine the most important decisions about technology issues and scientific research with democratic forms and public participation? This is the key dilemma, more and more present to scientists and policy makers, faced at the round table which takes place on October 31st at 6 p.m. at the AMGA congress center in Genoa.
Besides presenting the challenges that the topic brings to the renewal of the traditional democratic forms, significant experiences of public involvement in techno scientific issues, carried out in Italy and abroad, are illustrated and discussed.
