EvoKE project

The EvoKE pro­ject stands for Evol­u­tion­ary Know­ledge for Every­one. EvoKE aims to build a col­lab­or­at­ive, diverse, and dynam­ic net­work of people inter­ested in pro­mot­ing a great­er sci­entif­ic lit­er­acy in evol­u­tion. The net­work believes that a bet­ter under­stand­ing and accept­ance of evol­u­tion is fun­da­ment­al to make informed decisions and to address soci­et­al prob­lems such as human health, food secur­ity, and the ongo­ing crises in biod­iversity and cli­mate change. One of the main prin­ciples of evol­u­tion is that diversity is key to long-term suc­cess. By apply­ing this to our organ­isa­tion and by bring­ing people togeth­er with dis­tinct skills, interests, and cul­tur­al back­grounds, we aim to foster effect­ive, col­lab­or­at­ive pro­jects that will increase cit­izens’ sci­entif­ic lit­er­acy across Europe, both in evol­u­tion and bey­ond. Cur­rent mem­bers of EvoKE already include evol­u­tion­ary bio­lo­gists, edu­ca­tion research­ers, teach­ers, journ­al­ists, museum pro­fes­sion­als, sci­ence com­mu­nic­at­ors, artists, design­ers and cit­izen sci­ence organ­isa­tions. You can join us to help build EvoKE together.
