| Sumario: | Nanotechnology (NT) is an innovative technology platform of transversal character able to interfere in almost all economic sectors due to the great potential to create new products and be incorporated into the existing manufactured. Knowledge gaps about risks to health, environment and safety and the lack of a social debate on these issues in Brazil emerge in this context. The article presents a minipublic hybrid model institution with e-participation as a proposal of communication model to democratize the issues. It seeks to address the asymmetries of knowledge between citizens and science. The methodology consists of literature on risk issues in NT and institutional design theories in the interface with open government and e-participation. The proposed model suggests being effective to promote a debate with greater permeability into knowledge and public opinion, contributing as a transparency and participation tool. |
