Scientific citizen platforms

Scientific citizen platforms are currently the best option for co-creation of scientific evidence of social impact through egalitarian dialogue between scientists and citizens. The qualification of a claim as a hoax or evidence depends not on who says it or their status, but on the arguments and evidence provided. Some participatory methodologies had fallen into populism by disregarding scientific evidence and giving the same validity to an opinion as to evidence. Co-creation is scientific, any assessment is based on scientific evidence, whether it is provided by the academy, by the citizens or by the dialogue between all of them.
