This interactive session is run by the Ecsite thematic group on human interfaces and explainers , THE Group. Prepare to examine the role of explainers in fighting exclusion of underrepresented groups – including those from underprivileged areas, low-income backgrounds, ethnic minorities, etc). If it is our aim that science centres are active in promoting and propagating social justice and a more inclusive society, our explainers can play a fundamental role. Why? Because direct human contact often affects whether a particular group of people feels welcome or excluded from a science centre. The session will be a peer-learning workshop. After a general introduction, social inclusion issues that emerged in past Ecsite sessions and during THE Group Pre-Conference Workshop will be shared among small working groups to seek solutions and suggestions for inclusiveness involving explainers.
