Descrizione del progetto

Potenziare l’impegno pubblico nella ricerca in Bulgaria

Nel quadro dell’Anno internazionale della salute delle piante 2020, il progetto FRESHER, finanziato dall’UE, sensibilizzerà sulla protezione della salute dei vegetali per porre fine alla fame, ridurre la povertà, proteggere l’ambiente e promuovere lo sviluppo economico. In Bulgaria, dove il progetto ha sede, l’Accademia delle Scienze del paese, le università, gli istituti di ricerca e i partner associati, organizzeranno la Notte europea dei ricercatori su questo tema. Gli eventi promuoveranno l’impegno pubblico nella ricerca e incoraggeranno i giovani a intraprendere carriere scientifiche. Il progetto organizzerà una serie di eventi in 25 città, paesi e villaggi, prestando particolare attenzione a trasmettere messaggi mirati a un pubblico scarsamente servito, come le persone con bisogni speciali e i giovani a rischio di abbandono scolastico.

Obiettivo

Twenty partners in Bulgaria come together for European Researchers Night ‘20 to present FRESHER (Find Research Everywhere, SHare and expERience) - a 12-month project led by the Centre for Research & Analysis, in a Consortium, now in its 5th year, with the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences, universities, research institutes, the only Bulgarian tech park, a chamber of industry and commerce, the local office of a pan-European organisation, education entrepreneurship, and associate partners. FRESHER offers a series of specially curated, coordinated, multi-day participatory events at over 50 venues and 30+ schools in 25 cities/towns/villages. The talks, shows, hands-on experiments, lab visits, citizen research, competitions will reach 3.6 mln, and engage directly with 30,000 in face-to-face events at schools, libraries, museums, academic and outdoor venues, public transport and online. Building on well researched, popular formats for researchers’ engagement with the public, FRESHER provides multidisciplinary content around the International Year of Plant Health. The topic will feature in the programmes of all partners to assert the relevance of research to everyday life. Building on the Consortium’s existing understanding developed through previous local initiatives including Researchers Night, and addressing findings of research (MASIS report, Education & Training Monitor 2019 for Bulgaria, Women in Digital Scoreboard 2019, Science, Research & Innovation Performance in EU 2018), FRESHER focuses on enhancing public engagement with research and shortening the gap in the decision of young people and girls in particular to choose STEAM careers. The activities will step on previous evaluation and generate fresh, aligned data. The project will strengthen the capacity of all partners to organise accessible events for the general public, and to tailor messages for underserved audiences, including girls, young people at risk of school drop-out, as well as people with special needs.
