The QUEST quality indicators support science communicators in countering misinformation, inspiring young people and improving societal discussion on controversial science topics.
To develop a framework for assessing quality in science communication, QUEST held six workshops in five European countries, each bringing together a range of science communication stakeholders – researchers, journalists, science communication professionals, and members of the public. Collectively, the participants mapped what they consider quality in science communication, and we distilled the result into 12 quality indicators.
