(Telestock) – AENEAS And Leonardo Foundation – Machine Civilization ETS have signed a collaboration agreement to promote the awareness of the role of technological and scientific innovation for civil society and stimulate debate on its impact and benefits.
Specifically, the collaboration will concern social labs, a project of cross-media dissemination (through all the Foundation’s digital and social platforms), focused in particular on promoting research among young people and on STEM subjects (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) through informative videos entirely made by researchers. The goal is to stimulate curiosity and interest in scientific subjects among young people, showing research from inside laboratories with simple and captivating language. Together with professional journalists, multimedia communication experts and videomakers, Fondazione Leonardo Civiltà delle Macchine ETS works to raise awareness among users, opening new spaces for discussion and in-depth analysis through partnerships with other foundations, associations, institutions, universities, organizations and private companies.
ENEA, with its highly qualified staff, advanced laboratories, experimental plants and excellent instrumentation, will contribute to the project by providing short videos made by young researchers that will use simple and informative language to describe innovations, study results and patents. The initiative is part of the Agency’s initiatives aimed at enhancing and transferring the results of scientific and technological research.
Leonardo Foundation promotes the cultural growth of civil society on scientific issuesindustry and technology. Established in 2018, on the occasion of the seventieth anniversary of Leonardo Spa, since January 2024 it has been a third sector entity and, as such, it pursues civic, solidarity and social utility purposes on a non-profit basis, carrying out activities of general interest in the field of communication and training. The backbone of its action is an outreach program developed through the production and distribution of multimedia content focused in particular on scientific disciplines and the main topics at the center of the global debate.
