She also reinforced that both ReSEED and INIAV are on the path of research in public institutions on agriculture and food, and recognise the need and importance of science communication, even more relevant in a context of concern for food security and sustainable agriculture. Freire considered the workshop a valuable opportunity for reflection and practice, another step in a partnership with INIAV that accompanies ReSEED since its conception.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=&#8221;https:\/\/reseed.uc.pt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/IMG_3352-scaled.jpg&#8221; alt=&#8221;ReSEED&#8217;s principal investigator Dulce Freire speaks into the microphone alongside INIAV&#8217;s president, Nuno Canada, at the opening session of the workshop.They are seated at the table on the stage, the workshop poster is projected onto the background.&#8221; title_text=&#8221;IMG_3352&#8243; align_tablet=&#8221;center&#8221; align_phone=&#8221;&#8221; align_last_edited=&#8221;on|desktop&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.20.2&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.20.2&#8243; custom_margin=&#8221;0px||&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;0px||&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p><strong>ReSEED&#8217;s main researcher, Dulce Freire, and the president of INIAV, Nuno Canada, at the opening session of the workshop.<br \/>Photo: Rui Loureiro (INIAV)<\/strong><strong><\/strong><strong><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=&#8221;https:\/\/reseed.uc.pt\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/IMG_3446-scaled.jpg&#8221; alt=&#8221;Group photo of workshop participants &#8221; title_text=&#8221;IMG_3446&#8243; align_tablet=&#8221;center&#8221; align_phone=&#8221;&#8221; align_last_edited=&#8221;on|desktop&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.20.2&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.20.2&#8243; custom_margin=&#8221;0px||&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;0px||&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p><strong>Participants of the\u00a0 workshop &#8220;<\/strong><strong>Communicating science on agriculture and food: challenges and (in)visibilities&#8221; <br \/>Photo: Rui Loureiro (INIAV)<br \/><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_post_nav in_same_term=&#8221;on&#8221; prev_text=&#8221;Previous&#8221; next_text=&#8221;Next&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.16&#8243; custom_margin=&#8221;12px|||||&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][\/et_pb_post_nav][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Less hierarchy, more participation.
