Dear Listmembers,
I work at the Ministry of Science and Technology of Brazil, in the
Department of Popularization and Diffusion of Science and Technology,
which integrates the Secretary for Social Inclusion.
I am writing in the regard of the director of the Department, Mr. Ildeu de
Castro Moreira, who is also a member of this list. He has been discussing
with our Minister of Science and Technology about the possibility of
implementing a law of Popularization of Science in Brazil. Then, in order
to subsidize these meetings, we ask you all, if possible, to send us this
kind of legislation that it may exist in your country.
A Law of Popularization of Science is relevant to our country first to
stablish policies of approaching the scientific community to the general
public, second to define the society and communication means
responsibility and lastly, to raise funds to invest on popularization.
Thankfully,
Emanuella Jaguar
