European Researchers' Night and Researchers at Schools ISRAEL 2024-2025

Project description

Bridging science and society in Israel

Across Israel, there is a growing disconnect between scientific research and the general public, particularly among younger generations. Many communities, both Arabic-speaking and Hebrew-speaking, lack opportunities to engage directly with researchers outside of traditional academic settings. This gap stifles curiosity and limits understanding of scientific achievements and their impact. In response, the ERNI2024 project aims to bring research to the forefront of everyday life. With the support of the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions (MSCA) programme, it will facilitate open dialogues on common interests and scientific enquiry. Overall, the project promises to inspire a new generation of enthusiasts and deepen societal appreciation for research.

Objective

The public nationwide, especially youngsters, will meet researchers and experience research inside and outside campuses, peripheral and central cities, Arabic-speaking and Hebrew-speaking communities, informal festivity settings, and schools. It will allow discussions at eye level between researchers and kids, teens, and adults alike. Discussions about their common hobbies, accomplishments, curiosity, and the science in between. The public loves it, and the researchers love it (measured over our ERNIs since 2005).
We have a well-trained consortium running since 2005, operating a very appreciated ERNI project with an excellent reputation. We have the Ministry of Innovation, Science and Technology support in funding the awareness campaign and in professional personnel, as well as full involvement of the EU embassy in Tel Aviv.
