Dear Matteo
Thank you so much for getting in touch. We were actually hoping to do this course on a European or global scale. We will have a meeting next week with the rest of the Science Communication Unit to discuss further details, it would be great to speak to you in more details about possible collaboration. I will be in touch.
Thanks again
Laura

Laura (and Marina, Steve, etc.)
Are you planning something on European or global scale? If yes, we would be very interested in collaborating, as we often do similar things...
"We" means:
- SISSA, Trieste, where we run a full scale master course in science communication (2 years) since 15 years, but we happen to deliver sometimes targetted science communication courses, probably similar to what you call "crash courses" (we did it in particular for museum people)
- "Formicablu", Bologna, Italy, that delivers in particular training courses and workhops on science communication based on audiovisual and new media, to universities, master courses and professionals.
- "Traces consultants", Paris, France, that starting from experience of a course at Ecole Normale Superieure now delivers also training on science communication, informal learning, and theatre to engage young people (as "Les atomes crochus"), also in various european universities, masters and professional contexts...
let's keep in touch...
