080903/Z/06/Z: The Community X-Change

Project description:

The Community X-Change is a series of workshops where citizens - including scientists and policy makers - meet to discuss issues involving science and share their thoughts, feelings and ideas for possible actions. The project will explore a new methodology for dialogue called ‘two way street engagement’. The approach takes elements from a number of different initiatives including citizens’ juries and common language projects to provide time and space for citizens to discuss issues of local concern as well as those with national implications.
