Public and Stakeholder Consultation
Project Name | Genome BC Post-Performance Forums: Evaluation of Theatre as a Means for Discussing Science |
---|---|
Client | Genome BC |
Project Type | NGO and Non-profit Sector |
Timeframe | 2006 |
In this project for Genome BC, Praxis Pacific designed and moderated audience forums after performances of a play on human cloning called “A Number”. The theatre group performed the play for five different audiences, including the general public, high school students, seniors, and scientists. The forums engaged the audiences in discussing issues raised in the play and the usefulness of theatre as a means to dialogue with the public about science. The results were fed into the GE3LS (Genomics, Society & Ethics) study on public education and dialogue.
