International Union for Science Communicators
- International Union for Science Communicators
International Union for Science Communicators (IUSC) mission is to bring into active co-operation and association, groups and individuals through the world (developed as well as developing regions) who are interested in promoting as a necessary part of culture, the dissemination of science amongst the public and in particular amongst children for furthering scientific temper into society and individuals and for eradication of fallacious resorts to irrational beliefs.
The IUSC is trying to spread its network to individuals and institutions across the world to become members. There are variety of problems faced by individuals and communities due to lack of science communication. The IUSC can play a pivotal role through its offices the world over.
The IUSC will alert society at large against misuses of science, which result in threats to peace and to social and cultural diversities. It will also help society to make use of science in defense of solidarity, tolerance, social justice and equality. These objects reflect the culture of science.
