INSPIRE (INternational “Science Performance Is Ready” Event)

During the five day workshop, participants will very actively learn how to: choose a topic for the science show, start planning a science show, add humour without being silly, avoid mistakes and traps, engage audience in active participation, develop acting skills needed for successful performance, communicate Science.

This year Ljubljana Science Festival – Sciencetival will partly overlap with the INSPIRE workshop providing a perfect environment for the participants to test their learned skills in front of public.
