The organizers of the Critical Science Week 2017, from 15 to 19 May, are the student groups Ambient Crític, Assemblea Ecologista, Hortet de la UAB and Assemblea de Ciències, Biociències i Enginyeria. Talks, film forums, and workshops are some of the activities that will take place throughout the week, always keeping in mind goals such as awareness-raising and scientific dissemination. There will be a popular lunch to protest against food waste and a seminar by Antonio Turiel, expert in fossil fuel exhaustion and author of ‘The Oil Crash‘ blog.

The Critical Science Week is a platform for student involvement and training. All the activities are related to scientific studies and the analysis of the concepts that science students learn at the University from a different point of view.

The Critical Science Week seeks to reflect on scientific knowledge and evaluate its role from a social and political perspective, keeping in mind that science is meant to serve public interest. Find more information on the activities at the Critical Science Week’s Facebook event.
