Associació Catalana de Comunicació Científica - ACCC

The Associació Catalana de Comunicació Científica (ACCC) was established in 1990 as a professional organization that brings together scientific communicators, specialized journalists, scientists, disseminators and editors from the Catalan field with an interest in communicating scientific information in written and audiovisual media.

The ACCC's main objective is to promote, disseminate, expand and improve scientific communication in Catalan-speaking countries. It also wants to influence the social and political aspects of scientific information, while ensuring that it contributes to social progress.
Another priority goal of the ACCC is to facilitate the ongoing training of its associates and encourage debate and self-criticism among communicators of science, technology and innovation.

Based on these principles the ACCC works to:

• Boost the presence of science in the different media.
• Facilitate the free circulation and dissemination of ideas and scientific knowledge.
• Ensure the independence and objectivity of informational content generated around science, technology and innovation.
• Promote the standardization of science and scientific dissemination as basic contents in the field of Catalan culture.
