The European Science Engagement Conference annually unites the international community of science communication and public engagement professionals. #EUSEA2020 offers a Pan-European platform to expand networks and enhance skills via keynotes, interactive sessions and co-creative workshops. The conference is organised by EUSEA, the European Science Engagement Association.
