Today's society is increasingly the translation of scientific and technological innovations brought into people's daily routines. If in the past, science and technology only offered solutions to the problems faced by humanity, today they also contribute to the production of some of the most urgent problems to be resolved. The contemporary world is characterized by a scenario of uncertainty, characterizing a Risk Society. In this scenario, scientific education plays an important role, as living in a society that produces its own problems requires the ability to assess risk and make decisions.

O grupo, que debate educação científica na sociedade de risco, estará reunido entre os dias 20 e 22 de fevereiro em São Paulo (SP) e no dia 23 de fevereiro em Vitória (ES) e Brasília (DF).Researchers from three Brazilian universities and two European universities will meet for an international work meeting. The group, which debates scientific education in the risk society, will meet between the February 20 and 22 in São Paulo (São Paulo), and on the 23rd in Vitória (Espírito Santo) and Brasília (DF).

In addition, seven other researchers from different Brazilian universities will be present at the meetings to exchange experiences and present projects.
