How can we close the gap between the sciences and our society?
Join us on Thursday, Nov 24th in the charming ambiance of Hotel Le Chatelain with our members and guests to share with you our STEAM Programme focusing on interdisciplinarity, creativity and the reward of breaking down barriers in the STEAM fields.
The PWI STEAM Programme presents
Dr. Luise Kalbe who will share with us:
Science and technology are shaping our daily life and are increasingly changing our society.
We need to raise public awareness of the practical, ethical and legal aspects, increase communication between societal stakeholders and public debate.
Our society is at a crossroad. How do we as individuals and society benefit from this progress and make it work for us?
Join us this evening to reflect and debate based on real-life examples of what is already being done to bridge the gap between science and society.
