Denisse Vásquez-Guevara offers practical guidelines to develop and implement effective science communication. Contributors present several communication theories, research and participatory intervention methodologies, data collection, and facilitation tools contrasted with scientific evidence and case studies to illustrate how to carry out engaging initiatives that unite researchers and people around collaboration and interest in scientific research.
