EU PROJECTS

Sissa Medialab is currently partner organization in two EU funded projects:

 

 

The RETHINK project aspires to rethink science communication, both its theory and practice, to accommodate the major challenges to the individual and collective process of making sense about science. A guiding principle of RETHINK is that the contextual knowledge of citizens across the EU should play a vital role in shaping future scientific and technological developments and the sharing of this knowledge should be facilitated.

 


 

Setting sail on a 3-year educational journey in October 2019, the EU-project PHERECLOS builds upon the experience of Children’s Universities in Europe and beyond. The project will establish “Local Education Clusters” (LECs), bringing together schools and further relevant actors in the educational ecosystem of 6 diverse pilot regions. These actors may be universities, governmental and non-governmental organisations, companies, charities, museums or other knowledge providers. The LECs will be incubators for enabling dialogue and for setting-up joint activities between these organisations in the frameworkf of open schooling.
