Abstract

This project aims to promote the scientific dissemination of researches carried out by the Institute of TheoreticalPhysics of the Universidade Estadual Paulista Júlio de Mesquita Filho (IFT-UNESP) and the International Center forTheoretical Physics - South American Institute for Fundamental Research (ICTP-SAIFR), in order to contribute tobroaden the public's knowledge about Theoretical Physics and encourage them to learn more about this area.With this purpose, scientific dissemination activities on different areas of Physics will be conducted based on theproduction of journalistic videos on the most recent research in the field. The material produced together with theICTP-SAIFR communication team from the various scientific dissemination activities promoted by the institute willbe disseminated in an accessible way to the society, using multimedia resources, such as audios, videos, photosand infographics. Videos and other content will be published on different digital platforms and social networkssuch as IFT-UNESP and ICTP-SAIFR channels on YouTube, Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. In addition, scientificproduction linked to ICTP-SAIFR will also be taken as an agenda suggestion to other communication vehicles,especially to TV channels focused on teaching and research, such as UnivespTV and EBC.
