When, in the late seventies he was elected Secretary of the Brazilian Society for the Advancement of Science (SBPC) branch in Rio de Janeiro, he sought and obtained the support of the local scientists for new ideas and projects aimed at diffusing and interpreting science to the public. The creation of Ciencia as Seis emeia (Science at 6.30 p.m.), a series of lectures on science for the general public, is an example of his initiatives at that time. in 1982 he led a group of local scientists in launching Ciencia Hoje (Science Today), a monthly science news magazine supported by SBPC.

  • Parallel Sessions Programme
    - 1 - 4th Science Centre World Congress Parallel Sessions Programme Monday 11th April 2005 Parallel Session A (16h – 17h20) , 11th April Room 1 (Panel A1) : Relevancy - What is its Optimal Meaning to our Institutions Nowadays, there are two compelling reasons why museums, and especially science centers, should position themselves for maximum possible relevance. First, our institutions have a unique capacity to be more useful in an increasingly unstable world. And second, our sources of funding are increasingly demanding outcomes that positively impact the community and the environment. Sooner or later, the consequences of our field’s chosen actions and attitudes become matters of external accountability. Will museums, and especially science centers be part of the problem or part of the solution? An enquiry into the paradigm of relevance for the science center field on the basis of a series of reflective questions is the subject of his presentation. Convenor: Emlyn Koster, Liberty Science Center, USA Speakers: Lindsay Sharp, National Museum Of Science And Industry, United Kingdom Debra Colodner, University Of Arizona Science Center, USA Eric Jolly, Science Museum Of Minnesotta, USA Mike Bruton, MTN ScienCentres, South Africa Room 2 (Panel A2) : An International Forum on Equity and Diversity This session is modelled on one that the session leader chaired at the ASTC conference in October 2002, entitled ASTC's first international forum on equity and diversity. The intent was to transform the dialogue on "engaging diverse audiences" into a global one, recognizing that the issues and approach would vary from country to country. By proposing such a session at the 4thSCWC, it is our hope that this dialogue will continue on an international level.
