SUMMARY:[Postponed] SILBERSALZ-Festival 2020
DESCRIPTION:As a precautionary measure in response to the spreading of the 
 coronavirus the SILBERSALZ Science & Media Festival is postponed from June 
 2020 to 14 October until 18 October 2020.\n\nAs a combination of festival a
 nd conference, SILBERSALZ makes science accessible in a clear and vivid fas
 hion while simultaneously serving as a platform for the exchange of ideas a
 nd mutual inspiration. The aim of SILBERSALZ is to provide the general publ
 ic with access to scientific topics and to allow them to ask questions, the
 reby promoting a lively and active engagement with science in general. The 
 SILBERSALZ program is extensive, varied and is aimed at anyone who is inter
 ested, whether young or old, layman or expert, science fan or sceptic. This
  year's third edition focuses on our home - Planet Earth - its diversity, (
 eco)systems and special characteristics.\n\nThe third edition of the Confer
 ence of the SILBERSALZ Science & Media Festival 2020 takes place from 17–18
  October at the Leopoldina. This year, the Conference is designed as an int
 eractive laboratory for media & science bringing together international sci
 entists looking for new ways to communicate their research with the broader
  public and media professionals seeking new stories from the frontline of s
 cience and technology. We will tackle rebuilding public trust as a common c
 hallenge for both contemporary science and media and create a space for cru
 cial interdisciplinary collaboration. New ways of coproduction could become
  key as societies face the double challenge of accelerating climate change 
 and growing populism, even democratic backsliding. \n\nWith a program guide
 d by science and media as the two faces of trust, we are delighted to alrea
 dy announce three outstanding scholars as headlining keynote speakers, who 
 will explore the challenge of trust from their respective backgrounds:\n\nP

 an journalist, blogging pioneer, research fellow at the Harvard Kennedy Sch

 Jürgen Renn ML, Director of the Max Planck Institute for the History of Sci
 ence\n\nBe inspired by standout keynotes and engage in enlightening interac
 tive formats. Discover new projects: our science & media pitch is a unique 
 opportunity to hear about the latest concepts, research, discoveries and sc
 ience projects in development – for commissioning, coproduction or distribu
 tion on all platforms. The Call for Science Projects is still open. Apply w
