Descrizione del progetto
Comprendere il ruolo della scienza in Andalusia
Il progetto OPENRESEARCHERS1819, finanziato dall’UE, organizzerà la Notte europea dei ricercatori 2018-2019 in Andalusia per sensibilizzare l’opinione pubblica al contributo della ricerca nel trovare soluzioni sostenibili e innovative alle sfide sociali in Europa. Il progetto, guidato dal motto «Il patrimonio dei ricercatori in Europa come base per una scienza aperta alla cittadinanza», promuoverà una più profonda comprensione del ruolo della scienza, incluse le scienze sociali e umanistiche, nella vita quotidiana coinvolgendo un numero di ricercatori ampio e bilanciato in termini di genere. OPENRESEARCHERS1819 promuoverà l’interesse dei giovani per la scienza, nonché la ricerca e l’innovazione responsabili, mediante numerose attività di educazione creativa che si svolgeranno nelle strade e nelle piazze principali, nei teatri e negli edifici storici di otto città andaluse.
Obiettivo
Open Researchers 2018/19 is the sixth experience of Andalusia in the European Researchers’ Night. The project is designed to increase the awareness and perception of research as a solution to the numerous challenges faced by citizens mainly in Europe. ‘The heritage of researchers in Europe as a basis for a science open to citizenship’ is the main idea of the project, which has been conceived in a time where becomes clearer that we must join efforts to find sustainable, equal, innovative and creative solutions to give answer to the societal challenges in Europe. Understanding that Science is present in our daily lives through many disciplines involved including Social and Humanities Sciences, and learning that the progress should be accompanied by a scientific culture. It is essential to promote young people’s interest in Science by opening it to the general public through researchers in an accessible way in order to implement the public engagement in RRI. Fundación Descubre will coordinate this project, based on its experience through the last decade working with relevant projects and fundamentally in its consortium experience in the 6 NIGHT projects. The consortium is composed by nine Andalusian universities, the Spanish National Research Council (CSIC), Andalusian Foundation Progress and Health, and the Royal Botanical Garden of Córdoba. The project's major strength is the numerous edutainment activities taking place on main streets and squares, theatres, and historical buildings of the eight Andalusian cities, with a high mobilization of researchers. The European dimension of the event will be underlined by an active involvement of researchers with European funds, and Marie Skłodowska-Curie fellows, in the European Corners and in the pre-events organized before the Night. Gender balance will be guaranteed in researchers and organization members. The project includes the participation of a new citizen science project related to cultural heritage.
