EDUcation about ClimATE change and polar science

Descripción del proyecto

Sensibilización sobre las regiones polares de Turquía

Las regiones polares afrontan de forma crucial las consecuencias del cambio climático, ya que son importantes para la regulación del clima mundial. Sin embargo, el público tiene un conocimiento básico limitado sobre la relación entre el cambio climático y las regiones polares. En el proyecto EDUCATE, financiado por las Acciones Marie Skłodowska-Curie, se sensibilizará sobre las regiones polares y el cambio climático mundial, y se acabará con los estereotipos relacionados con los investigadores. Se expondrán los estudios y resultados realizados en un lenguaje adecuado, se demostrarán las repercusiones de estos estudios en nuestro mundo y en la vida cotidiana, y se presentará a los investigadores y sus profesiones. Además, el equipo del proyecto se centrará en la generación joven mediante la organización de talleres científicos, exposiciones, seminarios y conciertos en Estambul y Gaziantep.

Objetivo

Recent scientific reports of increasing global temperature, rising sea level trends, and atmospheric carbon dioxide levels clearly indicate the presence of global climate change. As important regions of the world for regulating the global climate system, the polar regions face the consequences of this change in an amplified way. Although the responsibility of mankind is evident for these results, basic knowledge on climate change and polar regions is limited in the public. Therefore, education and raising awareness on these subjects are essential to overcome this global challenge. This proposal aims increasing the awareness on polar regions and global climate change and fostering the recognition of related research and researchers in the public (especially young people) by presenting the conducted studies and results in an appropriate language, demonstrating the impacts of these studies on our world and daily life, and introducing researchers and their professions to create role models for the younger generation in a fun environment. To this aim, science workshops, stand activities, exhibitions, seminars, and concerts will be organized in İstanbul and Gaziantep cities. With the awareness campaign to be carried out before/during/after the events, an element of curiosity will be created about the polar regions, global climate change, and scientific researches on these issues by using digital platforms, as well as social and visual media. Planned activities will increase the public knowledge on basic principles and methods of related research on polar and climate science, improve the understanding of the impacts of climate change and related research on our daily lives, explain the importance and key benefits of these research to the public. In addition, the proposal intends to increase the interest of young people in polar and climate research, break the stereotypes about the researchers and give information on European Union and related opportunities.
