It is estimated that more than 600 scientists are actively involved in Solar Physics research in Europe. SOLARNET (funded by the European Commission under Grant Agreement number 824135) aspires at integrating: all group of scientists with complementary expertise in observational techniques, instrumentation, theoretical astrophysics, numerical simulations and modelling; the major European research institutions, research infrastructures, and data repositories in the field of high-resolution solar physics. As part of this large-scale network, we are aiming to build capacity in the SOLARNET community through Public Engagement training, and share best practice in effectively utilising outreach to engage and educate, engendering changes in attitudes – both amongst consortium members and the general public. In collaboration with experts in public engagement and science communication from NUSTEM at Northumbria University, we are designing a series of workshops in order to achieve this, which will be delivered in the next couple of years. Here, we discuss in detail some of the goals and methodology of the planned training.
