Description du projet
Comprendre le rôle crucial de la science pour l’avenir de notre planète
La hausse des températures mondiales, la diminution de la biodiversité et la pollution menacent le tissu même de l’écosystème de notre planète. Le changement climatique est une menace imminente qui impacte la santé, les moyens de subsistance et les générations futures. Soutenu par le programme Actions Marie Skłodowska-Curie (MSCA), le projet LEAF s’appuiera sur les éditions 2022 et 2023 de Nuit européenne des chercheurs, qui ont connu un vif succès. Plus précisément, il comblera le fossé entre la science et la société en organisant 900 événements dans 20 villes d’Italie. Ancré dans les principes du pacte vert pour l’Europe, LEAF promeut l’accessibilité et la jouissance de la science pour tous. Axé sur les écoles, il favorise le dialogue concernant le changement climatique, le développement durable et la santé. En permettant aux chercheurs d’entrer en contact avec les communautés, LEAF catalyse une compréhension profonde du rôle crucial de la science dans l’élaboration de l’avenir de notre planète.
Objectif
Starting from the encouraging results of the LEAF (heaL thE plAnet's Future) project in 2022 and 2023 NIGHT edition, we are now proposing a step forward to increase the awareness on the importance of research and innovation, to improve trust in the researcher's work by effectively involving the society in experimenting science through 900 events. All activities will cover EU Green Deal topics (Farm to Fork, Biodiversity, Circular economy, Zero-pollution, toxic-free environments, Health & Wellbeing, Energy and resource efficient buildings, secure energy, sustainable and smart mobility). The main goal is to make science accessible and fun to everyone, thus generating a practical understanding of how to cope with climate change issues. The LEAF project will be developed in 20 cities in Italy, involving 43 partners, 6 of which as Associated, with a series of events happening during the last week of September 2024 and 2025 thus including the NIGHT. LEAF 24-25 project will include a series of specific activities dedicated to schools to permit researchers to engage with teachers and pupils on challenges related to climate change, sustainable development, health and other issues related to the European Commission priorities such as the European Green Deal. In particular, in this edition we will reinforce the experience at school involving institutes located all around Italy and in particular in small towns with difficulties in reaching NIGHT events. First year will be devoted to fulfill the achievements reached in last editions while in 2025 our main goal will be the improvement of project KPIs thanks to the validation of the Researchers@Schools activity. The overall result will be a relevant increase in the awareness of why and how the researcher's work is relevant for the benefit of our current and future planet, as well as effectively encouraging young people in embarking in scientific careers by generating a real impact on science.
