POIESIS D1.5: Integrity, Integration, and Institutions for Trust: Reflections Based on Secondary Data Sources contains reflections as well as the main findings of the secondary data curation, (re-) analysis, and synthesis that the projects’ WP1 has carried out.
Apart from secondary data on public trust in science (considering also data on research integrity and societal integration in this regard), consisting of a comprehensive exploration of the field of surveys on trust in science in Europe, and an in-depth analysis of Eurobarometer data as well, this process also includes a reflection on the concept of trust in science from theoretical, empirical and survey perspectives in two expert workshops with key survey operators across Europe as well as science communicators with experience in crisis communication (in Berlin, June 2023; Lisbon, February 2024; and one more in Paris also forthcoming , June 2025)
Those findings, along with the recommendations provided by the POIESIS engagement activities on POIESIS D2.5: Cultivating chains of mediation to foster trust in science and on POIESIS D3.4: How can institutions promote responsible research to enhance trust in science: An analytical aide memoire towards recommendations for maintaining trust will be used as an input for the POIESIS Scenario Workshop (mid-May 2025, Brussels) which will co-create with stakeholders, with a focus on policy makers, the final POIESIS policy recommendations for tackling societal mistrust in science and for strengthening the co-creation of R&I contents by society.
