This panel delves into Asia’s distinctive science communication trajectories, exploring how historical legacies, cultural contexts, and institutional practices have shaped the field across the region. Drawing on diverse perspectives from Japan and neighbouring countries, the discussion will highlight key lessons from the past, current challenges and innovations, and visions for the future. Emphasis will be placed on non-Western approaches to science communication, and how these can inform practices that are more inclusive, sustainable, and responsive to the needs of future generations.
