Traditionally, research institutions have focused their efforts on generating scientific knowledge and disseminating it through traditional mechanisms such as scientific publications. Recently, several Latin American countries, through entities dedicated to the promotion of Science, Technology, and Innovation, are promoting the development of scientific culture in the general population, through various strategies of dissemination, popularization, or scientific appropriation. The National Institute of Health has implemented strategies of scientific divulgation, such as programs of educational visits in museums, divulgation in social networks and events of scientific divulgation. Scientific dissemination requires the development of new strategies or the adaptation of models implemented in countries of the region. It is important to implement new spaces and technologies that bring science closer to the community, such as new thematic museums or open laboratories, as well as the improvement of capacities in researchers and scientists for the adequate dissemination and effective communication of their research results.
