2006 December the 13th took place the first jornada de Santa Llúcia. In 2006 science communications professionals, members of the Biology and Society Section of the Catalan Society of Biology (affiliate of the Institute for Catalan Studies), Ciència en Societat Foundation and the grup Sci-COM of the Catalan Association of Scientific Communication, thought that this professional work is a very individual one: therefore, before knowing what we do, it would be better to know who we are. This is the reason of the name Who we are?

As it was impossible to know everybody in one afternoon, we show a preliminary draft of the map of science communication (MC3), who wanted to collect the scientific communication activities that take place in Catalan-speaking lands, and we begin by presenting the networks that bring together professionals of this field. To compensate, we will give a great importance to the happy hour, to facilitate close and distended meetings. To promote synergies. And, as was the December 13, since then we call Santa Llúcia Day.
