When decision-makers are engaged in a polarized discourse and leaving aside evidence-based recommendations, is there a role for researchers in the dissemination of this scientific evidence to the general public as a means to counterbalance the debate? In response to the controversial Bill 10 in Quebec, we developed and posted a knowledge transfer video on YouTube to help stimulate critical public debate. This article explains our approach and methodology, and the impact of the video, which, in the space of two weeks, had more than 9,500 views, demonstrating the pertinence of such initiatives. We conclude with recommendations for other research groups to engage in public debates.
当决策者参与两极分化的讨论而搁置基于证据的建议时,研究人员是否可以发挥作用,向公众传播这一科学证据,以此作为平衡辩论的一种手段?针对魁北克有争议的第10号法案,我们制作并在YouTube上发布了一个知识传播视频,以帮助激发公众的批判性辩论。本文解释了我们的方法和策略,以及该视频的影响,该视频在两周内获得了超过9500次观看,证明了此类举措的相关性。我们最后为其他研究团队参与公众辩论提出了建议。
