A ciência e a sociedade partilham uma relação dinâmica e bidirecional. Os avanços científicos impulsionam frequentemente o progresso societal, enquanto as necessidades e prioridades sociais orientam continuamente a direção e o foco da investigação científica. O CPUP está comprometido em promover o bem-estar e o desenvolvimento da sociedade, gerando novos conhecimentos que influenciam diversos domínios. A disseminação dos conhecimentos provenientes dos projetos de investigação do CPUP leva os avanços mais recentes da ciência psicológica a uma vasta gama de profissionais, ao público em geral e aos decisores políticos, potenciando assim o impacto e a aplicação dessa investigação.
A ciência cidadã implica o envolvimento colaborativo do público no processo e nas atividades de investigação científica, com o objetivo de enriquecer o conhecimento científico e promover a democratização da investigação científica. Aqui, pode encontrar projetos e atividades científicas desenvolvidas por investigadores do CPUP que utilizam a metodologia da Ciência Cidadã.
Partilhar e comunicar a investigação a públicos diversificados, promover a compreensão de conceitos científicos e fomentar o entusiasmo pela ciência são aspetos cruciais da ciência. Os recursos desenvolvidos no âmbito dos projetos e atividades da CPUP estão disponíveis para utilização por profissionais ou pelo público em geral (e.g., aplicações, livros, podcasts, workshops, canal Youtube).
Com base nos livros brancos ou policy briefs gerados pelos projetos, pode descobrir como a investigação do CPUP contribui para apoiar a tomada de decisões informadas por evidências, bem como para a definição e implementação de políticas em diferentes áreas (e.g., educação, apoio à família, saúde mental, igualdade de género, fertilidade, trabalho remoto).
