About “The European Researchers’ Night”
This initiative aims to bring research and researchers closer to the public, promoting dialogue and understanding between science and society. Each year, it attracts over 1.5 million visitors into museums, universities and research institutions in 460 cities across 25 countries, in Europe and beyond, creating unique opportunities for people of all ages to engage directly with research. This year it welcomed over 1.5 million people.
By promoting excellent research projects it showcases the diversity and quality of scientific work taking place across Europe. At the same time, the event aims to spark curiosity and inspire young people to consider careers in science and research, while highlighting the tangible ways in which researchers’ work influences and improves our daily lives.
