Abstract:
The study evaluates the efficacy of healthcare services outreach to disadvantaged and underprivileged persons in Europe. We conducted interviews and held focus groups to get a better understanding of these areas. We obtained qualitative data via these channels. Aside from assessing processes, descriptive statistics aided us in establishing how effectively these initiatives operate. According to the study, the target demographic may benefit greatly from pharmaceutical outreach initiatives due to the fact that they aid in healthcare access and, as a result, enhance health outcomes.

Abstract. The politicization of and societal debate on climate change science have increased over the last decades. Here, the authors argue that the role of climate scientists in our society needs to adapt in accordance with this development. We share our experiences from the awareness campaign Pole to Paris, which engaged non-academic audiences on climate change issues on the roads from the polar regions to Paris and through conventional and social media. By running and cycling across a third of the globe, the scientists behind the initiative established connections on the audiences' terms. P

Background: Health literacy outreach is commonplace within public and hospital libraries but less so in academic libraries, where it is often viewed as not integral. Academic health science libraries may collaborate with public libraries to provide public health information literacy programming or “train the trainer” sessions, but examples of academic health science librarians leading community health initiatives are still limited.

AbstractEffective science communication is essential to share knowledge and recruit the next generation of researchers. Science communication to the general public can, however, be hampered by limited resources and a lack of incentives in the academic environment. Various social media platforms have recently emerged, providing free and simple science communication tools to reach the public and young people especially, an audience often missed by more conventional outreach initiatives.
