One of the biggest science communication events in Latin America took place on Brazilian soil in 2023. The 18th edition of the RedPOP Congress had the theme “Diverse Voices: dialogue between knowledge and inclusion in the popularization of science” and sought to show the importance of the different cultures, perspectives and contexts that add to the diversity of the field of popularization and dissemination of science in Latin America and the rest of the world. Held at the Fiocruz Museum of Life in Rio de Janeiro between July 10 and 16, the meeting featured a diverse program with academic, artistic and interactive attractions on a variety of important topics for the popularization of science, fostering a space for exchanges between popularizers, educators, journalists, museologists and artists. The Serrapilheira Institute supported RedPOP203 with partial and full scholarships for participants from Brazil, Latin America and the Caribbean, as well as holding the public event.
