EDUcation about ClimATE change and polar science

Description du projet

Sensibiliser le public au sujet des régions polaires en Turquie

Les régions polaires subissent les conséquences du changement climatique de manière intense car elles sont importantes pour la régulation du climat mondial. Cependant, les connaissances de base du public sur la relation entre le changement climatique et les régions polaires sont très limitées. Financé par le programme Actions Marie Skłodowska-Curie, le projet EDUCATE permettra de sensibiliser le public à la question des régions polaires et du changement climatique mondial et de briser les stéréotypes qui entourent les chercheurs. Le projet exposera les études menées et les résultats dans un vocabulaire approprié, démontrera les impacts de ces études sur notre monde et notre vie quotidienne, et présentera les chercheurs et leurs professions. Il se concentrera en outre sur la jeune génération en organisant des ateliers scientifiques, des expositions, des séminaires et des concerts à Istanbul et Gaziantep.

Objectif

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.
