Science meets storytelling to address today’s big issues! At Berlin Science Week, we joined Stephanie Siewert (Alexander von Humboldt foundation), Adrianna Borowicz (journalist, Poland), and Sanam Roohi (researcher, India) to discuss powerful ways to communicate around migration, climate, and AI.

Highlights:
✨ Make science relatable, not just academic
🌏 Focus on real migration stories, not stereotypes
💡 Choose solutions-based climate reporting
👩‍🔬 Champion diverse voices in science!

Because real human connection—and not AI—should shape our understanding of the world. 🌱
