Welcome to Day Zero of the SDG Conference Bergen, 5 February 2025! As usual, there will be a series of parallel events. The day starts with a panel on the role of science-based knowledge in turbulent times.

Trust in science is seen to have eroded in recent years. There are widespread anti-science sentiments in politics and social media, as seen particularly in debates around climate change and pandemics. In this opening session for Day Zero, we will discuss whether trust in science actually has eroded and what this means for scientists, science communicators and policymakers.

The session will open with a presentation of the large-scale study Trust in Science and Science-related populism, by Viktoria Cologna who led the study. This is followed by a presentation of an international project on disinformation in the media, by Media City Bergen.

The panel discussion will focus on how research can adapt and be resilient and robust in these turbulent times.
