Popular science knowledge has reflexively constituted a knowledge dimension of modern society. At present,
there is a significant opportunity to promote the innovative development of science popularization in the new era,
making it an opportune moment to construct a system and paradigm for the dissemination of local popular science
knowledge. Following Clifford Geertz’s concept of knowledge—characterized by particularity, diversity, locality, and
context-sensitivity as opposed to universal knowledge—this paper focuses on “local popular science knowledge,” a
vital component embedded within the broader universal concept of “science,” to explore innovative pathways for its
dissemination. The communication of local popular science knowledge exhibits characteristics of a nationwide science
popularization fervor and fragmented communication patterns. Accordingly, this study proposes strategies such as
advancing knowledge inclusion closer to reality, adopting grassroots narratives in two-step communication.
