💡Engaging discussion on women fighting #disinformation with @marie-doha.bsky.social from NATO and Nabeelah Shabbir from the International Center for Journalists @icfjorg.bsky.social yesterday during the #NightOfIdeas ✨ @frenchinstituteuk.bsky.social
Julia Black @britishacademy.bsky.social @bankofengland.bsky.social invited scientists — and regulatory agencies — to display more effectively their methods, data, uncertainties: a greater transparency of science process increases trust of general public in their research
#NightOfIdeas
Thibaud Boncourt (polisci prof, Uni Lyon 3) underscored the change in the relation between politicians and researchers: since the 1970s, politicians have questioned more the use of public money by researchers, and have asked for proof of "return on investment" of public research
#NightOfIdeas
Alyssa Gilbert @granthamicl.bsky.social @imperialcollegeldn.bsky.social said that scientists cannot just design technological solutions, they also need to take people onboard so that they trust these solutions. She gave the examples of heat pumps that are yet to be adopted
#NightOfIdeas
Pierre-Paul Zalio @campuscondorcet.bsky.social quoted Gil Eyal (The crisis of expertise, 2019) and drew a comparison with a motorway:
- fast lane = short-term politics
- slow lane = academic research
- middle lane = regulatory science where science and politics bargain
#NightOfIdeas
A lot of thought-provoking ideas during this "Facts in fact: science & policy-making" #NightOfIdeas panel on the nexus between research and politics at @frenchinstituteuk.bsky.social! 🔬💡
Some takeaways and suggestions raised to increase mutual trust between scientists, policymakers and the public🧵⤵️
