The next Symposium will be held in 2025.<\/b><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Symposium aims to convene science communication (SciComm) practitioners, scholars, and educators working across many disciplines, sectors, methods, settings, and topics to discuss practical approaches for advancing inclusive approaches to SciComm and public engagement. The symposium defines SciComm in its broadest sense, as any information exchange designed to engage specific audiences in conversations or activities related to science, technology, engineering, mathematics, or medicine (STEMM).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Inclusive SciComm comprises varied perspectives, including community engagement, informal science learning, arts, community organizing, journalism, community-based participatory research, inclusive pedagogy, service learning, library science, and many others. The purpose of the Inclusive SciComm Symposium is to build a community that actively challenges the <a href=\"https:\/\/informalscience.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/BP-4-Cultural-Norms.pdf\">dominant, frequently marginalizing norms of STEMM<\/a> and deficit-oriented approaches to communication culture, and promotes science communication that values individual and group assets. Through these transformations, the Inclusive SciComm community will reimagine and change how science is conducted and discussed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Practical approaches to inclusive SciComm are particularly important given the pandemic, ongoing racism, and structural inequities. These overlapping events and experiences have highlighted the urgent need for action. We need strategies for putting intentionality, reciprocity, and reflexivity &#8211; the key traits of inclusive science communication &#8211; into practice. Science communication is continually and rapidly changing; therefore, we must be aware of our intent and impact as we communicate, educate, and research.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\"><div class=\"cl-wrapper cl-card-wrapper\"><a class=\"cl-card  \" href=\"https:\/\/web.uri.edu\/inclusivescicomm\/2023-inclusive-scicomm-symposium\/2023-community-cohort\/\" title=\"\"><div class=\"cl-card-container media\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/web.uri.edu\/inclusivescicomm\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/1568\/0056_InclusiveSciComm_092919_056-1-scaled.jpg\" srcset=\"\" alt=\"Group of people exuberant sitting on floor\"><\/div><div class=\"cl-card-container text\"><div class=\"cl-card-text\"><h2>Community Cohort<\/h2><p>We launched the inaugural Inclusive SciComm Community Cohort at the 2021 Symposium, with generous support from Science Sandbox, an initiative of The Simons Foundation.<\/p><\/div><\/div><div class=\"cl-card-container button\">LEARN MORE<\/div><\/a><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\"><div class=\"cl-wrapper cl-card-wrapper\"><a class=\"cl-card  \" href=\"https:\/\/web.uri.edu\/inclusivescicomm\/2023-inclusive-scicomm-symposium\/\" title=\"\"><div class=\"cl-card-container media\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/web.uri.edu\/inclusivescicomm\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/1568\/ISC19_Listening_Kerrigan-scaled.jpg\" srcset=\"\" alt=\"Woman with hands clasped smiling in an auditorium\"><\/div><div class=\"cl-card-container text\"><div class=\"cl-card-text\"><h2>2023 Symposium<\/h2><p>Learn more about the 2023 Symposium<\/p><\/div><\/div><div class=\"cl-card-container button\">CHECK IT OUT<\/div><\/a><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\"><div class=\"cl-wrapper cl-card-wrapper\"><a class=\"cl-card  \" href=\"https:\/\/web.uri.edu\/inclusivescicomm\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/1568\/Accessible-2023-Final-Philanthropic-Inclusive-SciComm-Symposium-Sponsorship-Metcalf-Institutev2.pdf\" title=\"\"><div class=\"cl-card-container media\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/web.uri.edu\/inclusivescicomm\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/1568\/Amara-Huddleston-laughs_ISC2019_Ertl-scaled.jpg\" srcset=\"\" alt=\"Person smiling surrounded by people seated in a conference\"><\/div><div class=\"cl-card-container text\"><div class=\"cl-card-text\"><h2>Sponsor the ISCS<\/h2><p>Generous support from individuals and organizations makes the Symposium possible.<\/p><\/div><\/div><div class=\"cl-card-container button\">MAKE AN IMPACT<\/div><\/a><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"cl-wrapper cl-card-wrapper\"><a class=\"cl-card  \" href=\"https:\/\/web.uri.edu\/inclusivescicomm\/code-of-conduct\/\" title=\"\"><div class=\"cl-card-container media\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/web.uri.edu\/inclusivescicomm\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/1568\/img_3393-1024x683.jpg\" srcset=\"\" alt=\"A diverse group of people with different genders, abilities, races, and ethnicities walks and wheels down a sidewalk.\"><\/div><div class=\"cl-card-container text\"><div class=\"cl-card-text\"><h2>Values Statement<\/h2><p>Everyone is affected by the problems and progress of science.
