On the 19th and 20th of June, the London and Berlin team jointly organised the first POIESIS’ expertworkshop on trust in science in Berlin which has been a great success.
The workshop had two distinct and at the same time closely interrelated parts: on the one hand,the debate about how trust in science is measured very concretely in various national andinternational surveys and what results the different measures produce, animated by numerousexperts involved in the realisation of such surveys; on the other hand, a more conceptual discussionabout the very meaning of “trust in science” and its different dimensions with input from expertswith a more theoretical perspective on the topic.
The nearly 20 participants had intense and constructive discussions which will certainly lead to somecommon effort of reporting on the results of the workshop.
