Every science (and arts like Mathematics ;) ) should have an accessibility effort.

In a nutshell: Explaining the discipline, right up to the cutting edge, in simple terms, for anyone to understand.

And I don't mean just explaining each term once and then going back to opaque technospeak - a running translation effort, in order to bring the entire discipline into the commons of humanity.
