Our outreach and communication efforts spanned schools, villages, and public spaces — aiming to make synthetic biology understandable and meaningful to every age group. Through visual storytelling, contextual education, and active dialogue, we turned scientific understanding into collective awareness.
- Education — Custom TLMs and interactive models for students, focusing on heavy metal contamination and biological remediation.
- Women in Science — Spotlighting women’s representation in STEM, starting from VV Giri Girls’ High School and through our team’s women-led foundation.
- Thematic Venn — Integrating scientific, environmental, and social perspectives into a single interpretive visualization.
- Zonal Studies — Regional engagement across Odisha, revealing varying perceptions of contamination and industrial impact.
- Community Dialogues — Direct interactions with our communities, local residents, panchayats, and stakeholders to share findings, gather feedback, and co-design interventions.
- Challenges and Triggers — Barriers, motivations, and insights drawn from community and expert feedback.
- Goals and Interventions — Translating science communication into actionable governance and participatory frameworks.
