The increasingly rapid pace at which scientific and technological advancements unfold challenges society to make informed decisions about issues that affect individual and social well-being and environmental health and sustainability.
Acknowledging the societal impact of biodiversity and evolutionary biology research and the public interest on these topics, CIBIO-InBIO is strongly committed to narrowing the gap between research and society. We seek to promote public awareness and understanding of ground-breaking topics on these fields and enhance appreciation of biodiversity and the importance of its preservation.
To achieve these goals, we have in place a broad science in society strategic plan focusing on the general public, schools and the media.
