Short description of project |
The overall objective of the project is popularisation of science and new technologies in schools, universities and within art organisations and media, taking into account ideas and perspectives of children and youth. The aim is to engage more young people all over Europe in participating in decision making concerning the currently most important issues – science and education. The ambitious goal that the FOI team aims to realize in this project is the development of a children’s virtual gateway to the website of every university worldwide. |
