Why partecipate
To reflect on how science can become a fundamental resource for inhabiting uncertainty, building shared narratives, and guiding informed decision-making.
Program
In times marked by environmental, health, and social crises, talking about risk is unavoidable — yet far from simple. The fifth edition of ONSCI offers an intensive programme of training and discussion focused on the role of dialogue between science and society in contexts of uncertainty and vulnerability.
The round table opening this 5th edition aims to foster an interdisciplinary dialogue among scientists and scholars who address risk from different perspectives. The goal is to reflect on how science can become a fundamental resource for inhabiting uncertainty, building shared narratives, and guiding informed decision-making.
