As annnounced previosuly, 10 November 2016 will be the first International Science Center and Science Museum Day.

Building upon UNESCO’s theme of “Science for Peace and Development,” the goal is to create new ways for our institutions to proactively address global sustainability while reaching increasingly diverse audiences. International Science Center and Science Museum Day (ISCSMD) aims to demonstrate the engagement and impact of the science center and science museum field, and outcomes from the day’s events and discussions will be presented at the Science Centre World Summit 2017 in Tokyo.

Science centers and science museums around the world are addressing the Sustainable Development Goals through exhibits and programmes: see examples here and contribute a story!
