Everyone committed to inspiring people with science and technology is invited to join the largest European science engagement conference and meet with 1,000+ peers. The Ecsite Conference is a unique professional development opportunity, offering an intense mix of intellectual stimulation, purposeful and creative sessions, business opportunities, and unparalleled networking …. all true to the spirit of the Ecsite community - creative, engaging, open and professional.
Ecsite’s thoughts go out to our friends and colleagues in Ukraine after the attacks by Russia, and to the Ukrainian people who are now experiencing the horrors of war.
As science engagement professionals, it is absolutely necessary to play our part in supporting democratic societies. We will continue to use our organisations’ power to engage millions of citizens in dialogue and stand in solidarity with Ukraine.
Join with other science engagement professionals this March for an in-depth learning opportunity on the value and impact of these important collaborations.
