Description
The PO activities at IFCA are very diverse and focused on a variety of potential learners.
Our starting point is the very local, classical-design programme “Expanding science” in which the scientists working at the institute regularly visit schools to talk about science, adapting the contents to the level of the scholars and adding a gender perspective to the activities. With these visits, the students can know in person real scientists working in a large number of research fields and what they contribute to the current problems of the society. These required a reformulation for the COVID era.
Another backbone of our PO activity is our participation in international initiatives to communicate science to the general public, all ages, again with a special look at the gender perspective. For this, we regularly participate in the ERN, the International Day of Women and Girls in Science, the Science Week , the Space Week, Black Hole Week and several joint initiatives of EU projects, benefiting from an in-person approach and also an on-line design.
Many diverse activities aiming at reaching a great variety of public, all ages, all backgrounds....you never know who is listening...
