Outreach

One of CIRM's tasks is to communicate the research results of its members to a wide audience, not necessarily scientific. The focus of scientific outreach is on the populations of the Vaud and Valais Alps, as well as the schools in the cantons of Vaud and Valais. CIRM also emphasizes the co-production of knowledge with the inhabitants of mountain regions through a participatory science program.

These mediation activities are part of the Mountain and Society program. Additionally, CIRM organizes thematic action programs.

For mediation and participatory science activities, CIRM collaborates with the Culture and Scientific Mediation Department (SCMS) of the University of Lausanne (UNIL).
