Scientific communication and knowledge dissemination are of essential importance because of their intermediary role between science and society. The knowledge dissemination of science is not only a right - article 27 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights states: "Everyone has the right [...] to share in scientific advancement and its benefits" - but it is also an obligation.
A quality scientific knowledge dissemination can help to explain and bring the scientific knowledge closer to the citizens. The more and better informed the citizenry is, the less uncertainty and hoaxes will be transmitted.
The University of Navarra, aware of all these challenges, promotes scientific communication and culture in society through the activities of the Science Museum: various communication actions and citizen science projects aimed at guaranteeing the Education of citizens towards a more sustainable future.
Citizen participation activities and projects seek to raise awareness among citizens towards a more sustainable future.
