“Beaks and berries”: zoological laboratory (II) of the formative proposal of inclusive scientific divulgation

Searching a topic that help us about the implementation of an inclusive divulgation, aimed also at sensory disabilitiesusers, we have chosen birds as a key to connect different scientific issues (pollution, environmental changes, exploitation of resources) and create new knowledge in a heterogeneous auditorium, through the suggestions that the workshop lessons can infuse on the users, whether they are disabled or not. All this to bring them closer to thescientific contents to which they do not have easy access. In particular, the project aims to develop, deepen and consolidate, through communication and information, issues concerning the concept of biodiversity, in order to sensitize users to safeguard the species and habitats of our territory and make them as the main actors of scientific dissemination.Indeed, weestabilisheda convention between the “Istituto dei Ciechi Opere riunite I. Florio – F. ed A. Salamone” of Palermo and the “Consiglio Nazionale delle Ricerche – Istituto per lo studio degli impatti Antropici e Sostenibilita in ambiente marino” of Capo Granitola (TP). The main role of this convention is to bring disable people closer to these scientific subjects and make the contents of our laboratories as inclusive as possible.The project “The world of birds”, developed from January to April 2019 is divided into three main themes, the second of which is the focus of this report: The bird alimentation.
