description: This report aims to respond to objective O2) to explore the initiatives that are already making societal actors aware of the connection between the solutions they appreciate and the scientific research that led to them. <strong>A systematic review</strong> of scientific and grey literature. Scientific papers indexed in Web of Science (mainly in those journals indexed in Journal Citation Reports) and Scopus were explored, as well as relevant reports from EU-funded research projects and official EU documents with relevant contributions to the topics under review. The search was made under specific keywords on gender and education in Q1 and Q2 journals. As a result of this process, 4 articles with focus on Gender and 10 articles were retrieved regarding the raising awareness of social impact in education. <strong>Social Media Analytics</strong> of citizens’ interactions on the targeted areas (quality education and gender equality) was based on the Social Impact in Social Media methodology (Pulido et al., 2018), which allows access to the social impact of science. This research conducted a quantitative and qualitative analysis under both a bottom-up and top-down strategy, that lead to the extraction of 3,565 messages, from which 506 messages (262 in gender and 244 in education) were discarded from the analysis. The final sample included a total of 3,059 messages. <strong>12 Focus Group</strong> (6 on gender/6 on education) were conducted as part of WP1, on which topic b) “Citizen awareness of the impact of scientific research” was discussed. FG followed the guidelines established in the Focus Group protocol of the project, as well as the individual and collective protection measures based in the country due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Focus groups in gender included the selection of different profiles of participants: Women (including vulnerable women) from a women’s group; Members of an LGBTQI group; Women (including young women) from a women’s group. Focus groups in education include the selection of different profiles of participants: Parents; Teachers; Students. FG were divided into an Experimental Group and a Control Group, since the focus groups not only serve to collect information on the project’s objective, but as pre- and post- test to the actions to replicate in WP5. <strong>A survey on the European population</strong> aimed at analysing which awareness-raising initiatives and actions are enhancing citizen participation in science, including that of vulnerable groups and young citizens, as well as the recruitment of new talent for science. The following part of this Executive Summary include the main results obtained after the implementation of the four techniques (Literature Review, Social Media Analytics, Focus Group, and Survey) conducted within ALLINTERACT’s project to respond to O2: 1) gender at the core of scientific research, 2) science targeting different social groups, 3) Social Media to engage with different social actors, 4) Science with power to transform people’s lives and 5) Fake news and hoaxes.
