Abstract :
Modern science has a far-reaching influence
on the development of society. In the last four to five
centuries the scientific progress ahs been rapid and
astounding and yet it is often incomprehensible for
people who are impacted by it but left out of the debates
surrounding its theories and applications. Scientific
progress is often seen as clashing with long held beliefs
and values which impedes its application for full
realization for the purpose of social goals. In these
contexts, scientists and educator have a significant role
to play given the fact that they have knowledge,
experience and that they themselves are a part of the
society that can benefit by scientific endeavors. The
paper explores the importance and role of scientific
community in sharing the utility value of science for
society.
