Abstract

This project aims to develop a scientific communication proposal for Labirinto - Laboratory of Socioanthropological Studies on Technologies of Life, linked to Labjor/NUDECRI at the University of Campinas (Unicamp). Labirinto stands out for investigating themes that cross science, technology, and society, producing critical reflections on bodies, gender, feminism, hormones, race, and menstruation, while analyzing how scientific knowledge is constructed, interpreted, and socially appropriated. It is an innovative laboratory, with a solid production in interdisciplinary methodological experimentation and several science communication initiatives, such as the blog and the Mundaréu podcast. This science communication plan proposes strategies to strengthen and expand the dissemination of the group's activities, using approaches that diversify the ways its content circulates. The intention is to create more effective paths for the research developed at Labirinto to reach not only the academic community but also journalists, science communicators, educators, and the general public.
