„With Science in MIND, we strengthen society“
We are convinced that science literacy – the ability to understand scientific findings, critically evaluate them, and apply them to everyday life – is a fundamental pillar of a democratic society. Democracy thrives on the exchange of diverse perspectives. However, only when arguments are based on verifiable facts can a debate be conducted respectfully, constructively, and with a focus on solutions.
Science literacy empowers people to distinguish between verifiable findings and mere assertions. It strengthens resilience against disinformation, fake news, and the deliberate fabrication of alternative "truths." At the same time, it fosters trust in democratic discourse because it helps ensure that differing opinions can be discussed on a common basis.
Furthermore, science literacy imparts not only knowledge but also an attitude: curiosity, openness, and the willingness to reconsider one's own viewpoints in light of new evidence. This is precisely the attitude we need to cultivate a healthy culture of debate and to safeguard social cohesion, even in times of crisis and polarization.
