Descrizione del progetto
Gli studenti incontrano i ricercatori, persone comuni con lavori straordinari
Non c’è niente di meglio di un buon festival e, se si tratta del festival della scienza più diffuso della Svezia, l’esperienza è garantita. Il progetto ForskarFredag (o Venerdì dei ricercatori), finanziato dall’UE, consiste in eventi aperti a tutti: dibattiti, caffè scientifici, concorsi, spettacoli, esperimenti e attività pratiche, nonché un ampio programma per le scuole. La prossima edizione, FF2022_23, coinvolgerà 26 città, oltre 100 000 partecipanti e 1 360 ricercatori. Il motto sarà «I ricercatori sono persone normali con lavori straordinari». Gli studenti di età compresa tra i 6 e i 19 anni potranno «prendere in prestito un ricercatore» a scuola o virtualmente, mentre un esperimento nazionale di massa che invita gli studenti a scoprire il lavoro dei ricercatori coinvolgerà circa 50 000 persone.
Obiettivo
"ForskarFredag (Researchers’ Friday) is Sweden’s most widely dispersed science festival. ForskarFredag 2022 and 2023 (FF2022_23) will consist of events arranged in 26 cities and an online programme, open to anyone. In total, FF2022_23 will engage around 109,000 attendees and 1360 researchers.
The non-profit association VA (Public & Science) has coordinated FF annually since 2006. FF2022_23 builds on previous years, drawing on experience, contacts and an ever-increasing profile. The FF motto is ""Researchers are ordinary people with extraordinary jobs”.
At FF2022_23, members of the public will meet researchers and participate in activities designed to stimulate dialogue and show that research is exciting and relevant to everyday life: debates, science cafes, competitions, shows, experiments and hands-on activities. Common themes around EU priorities will inspire activities exploring the role of research in tackling societal challenges. A collaboration with 6 other ERN projects will deliver a set of European-wide activities, highlighting the European dimension of research.
Young people aged 6–19 are a key target group. A school programme will offer numerous opportunities for encounters with research. The “Borrow a Researcher” concept will enable 9000 pupils across Sweden to meet a researcher in school or virtually. A national mass experiment (citizen science project) inviting pupils to work with researchers, will involve appr. 50,000 people.
Local events (physical and digital) expected to reach around 25,000 attendees annually will be organised by 11 Partners and 21 External Partners. Each event builds on local strengths and networks to give the highest possible impact. All event organisers share experiences in a national network. VA is responsible for the coordination, quality assurance, common activities, national identity, awareness campaign and impact assessment of FF22_23."
