The POIESIS Scenario Workshop

May 16, 2025

The POIESIS Scenario Workshop on May 14th in Talk C.E.C., Brussels marked the conclusion of a wonderful 3-year journey of engagement activities and studies across Europe.


Discussions and remarks from the research experts and policy makers who took part, right after the IANUS | POIESIS | VERITY Final Conference were very fruitful, and will help us greatly in our efforts to refine POIESIS final recommendations for tackling societal mistrust in science!!

Tine Ravn gave a short presentation of the POIESIS previous research activities and of the projects' early recommendations. Eleni Spyrakou moderated the event.

Participants were divided into 3 tables, each one examining a different case, based on the POIESIS early recommendations. A plenary discussion followed, with participants trying to identify common themes among the aforementioned cases. Then, a new split into 3 tables followed based on the themes identified (Collaborations and Competing Interests, Different types of the public and means of involvement, the importance of science's self promotion and the limits of expertise).


The workshop concluded with valuable insights for forming the final version of the POIESIS Recommendations.
