On 13 November 2018, the European Commission invited 23 experts to a one day workshop on how to best involve citizens in the co-creation of Horizon Europe missions.
Throughout December 2018 and January 2019, kick-off workshops will take place at SISCODE co-creation labs around Europe. These internal events launch the first phase of the co-creation labs journey, in which each lab will design and plans its co-creation journey.
SySTEM 2020: Science learning outside the classroom is happy to present its very first newsletter to you. It's more than just project updates, it's all the latest developments in the field of out-of-school learning. Perhaps you have been confused by all these terms, like we have, formal/informal or nonformal? Which one is which and what is the difference? For the last few months, we have been trying to figure this out.
The communication of SySTEM 2020 is like the modern completion of Alexandre Dumas’ battle cry in The Three Musketeers. We believe that partnership between people who want to contribute to the same aim needs to be promoted – internally and externally. It's with this idea in mind that we at Ecsite have decided to kick-start SySTEM 2020 communications campaign. On social media, we wanted to connect our partners and our target audience with our mission - to promote science learning outside the classroom.
City Lab representatives from 7 European countries met in Amsterdam last 26-27 November for two intense days of reflection on the first year of the project and training for the road ahead.
65+ Directors and Senior Managers of Full Ecsite member organisations gathered in Barcelona last month for the 2018 Ecsite Directors Forum, hosted by The Natural Sciences Museum of Barcelona, together with Barcelona Ciència. Attendees explored the topic "Science engagement organisations as Citizen labs" and discovered Barcelona’s vibrant citizen-led innovation scene.
