The presentation targets staff members interested in communication, education, exhibitions and public outreach. No previous knowledge or engagement in EDIT activities is required. The presentation focuses on communication trends, best practices and lessons learned during the International Year of Biodiversity. The lecture is based on two recent EDIT-Public Awareness (PA) studies (The IYB within the EDIT Institutions, Communication trends) and on the recent EDIT-PA workshop 'Debriefing the IYB'.

The latter gathered communication and public awareness officers from the EDIT institutions and international organisations such as International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) , Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD)  European Environment Agency (EEA)  and Botanic Gardens Conservation International (BGCI) in order to exchange on experiences made during the IYB.
