# SciBeh Virtual Workshop 2021: Science Communication as Collective Intelligence

## 18-19 November 2021


## Goal

We need science communication that moves beyond the traditional "lone wolf" model (where individual scientists engage in public outreach) towards a **collective intelligence** model.

In this workshop, we will develop a **manifesto that establishes the need for collective intelligence in science communication** and identifies the tools and methods necessary for its success.

## Why collective intelligence?

- In a crisis, the landscape of science communication and its socio-political context is changing dynamically.
- Social media disinformation and anti-science campaigns have become part of the wider discourse, damaging trust in scientific communication.
- Individual scientists will struggle to communicate effectively amidst these forces.
- We need to adapt---by harnessing collective intelligence to communicate scientific outputs to both policy-makers and the public.
