Dissemination
Dissemination strategy
EuroScitizen Dissemination Plan proposes a compendium of actions to address the different WGs needs, and promote their activities and results, in order to reach and have an effective impact in the different WGs specific and general targets.
In order to foster an efficient and wider impact across Europe, EuroScitizen dissemination strategy aims to promote an image of a transdisciplinary, inclusive and ambitious collaborative research network, working to increase scientific literacy in European society, in order to have citizens better equipped to face societal challenges through evidence-based and responsible decisions and policies. EuroScitizen dissemination strategy will promote the advantages and opportunities of involving different stakeholders from diverse expertise and geographical areas, and social realities.
EuroScitizen dissemination activities, will promote the relevance, implications, objectives and opportunities that EuroScitizen research, activities and resources, offer to scientific community, science communicators, media, teachers, educational and research authorities, informal educators, policy makers and social indicatives such as health and environmental organizations.
To improve and expedite EuroScitizen WGs’ interaction and collaborations with their targets, partners and stakeholders, and facilitate the distribution and dissemination of the WGs activities, objectives, and results, EuroScitizen dissemination team is working in a dissemination plan to identify and define the specific needs, targets and particularities of the different WGs, in order to propose specific actions and tailor-made strategies.

Dissemination Grants
Research Associate at the Department of Evolutionary Biology, Institute for biological research “Siniša Stanković”, University of Belgrade, Serbia.
The focus of his Ph.D. dissertation at the Faculty of Biology, University of Belgrade was coevolution of the two genomes – mitochondrial and nuclear, and their role in ageing of the seed beetles. Mirko was the winner of the FameLab International Final in 2009 in Cheltenham, UK. He was involved in several projects that are focused on the popularization of science and evolutionary biology in Serbia (e.g. "Evolution of Life on Earth: From Cells to Domains", financed by the ESEB Outreach fund in 2018). Currently, he is leading the citizen science project “Obtectus Finders” (http://www.opasuljise.rs/en/).
