Many informal science education institutions have used co-creation approaches when developing and implementing public engagement with science activities as a way to include community priorities and perspectives. This approach focuses on responding to community issues as viewed by the community themselves, and allows informal science education institutions to work with civic and community partners to meaningfully engage on these topics. Join us as we chat with NISE Network partners that participated in the NSF-funded “Building Capacity For Co-Created Public Engagement with Science” (CC-PES) Project. These partners will share insights into their unique adaptations of the co-creation model and how they worked within their own communities to create and host public engagement with science activities. We will also hear from project evaluators, who will provide context about the project and their findings from this work.
