On the 19th and 20th of June, the London and Berlin team jointly organised the first POIESIS’ expert
workshop 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 and
international surveys and what results the different measures produce, animated by numerous
experts involved in the realisation of such surveys; on the other hand, a more conceptual discussion
about the very meaning of “trust in science” and its different dimensions with input from experts
with a more theoretical perspective on the topic.

The nearly 20 participants had intense and constructive discussions which will certainly lead to some
common effort of reporting on the results of the workshop.
