The awareness campaign will comprise national TV broadcasts, radio broadcasts, press presence and a social media campaign, reaching 100.000 people. Moreover, as a citizen science project, over 500 seeds will be sown all over Slovenia by citizens and will be the basis for collaboratiovecollaborative research: comparing growth, plants characteristics and the physical and chemical properties of Slovenian autochthonous species. We expect seeds to grow throughout the citizens science project in the awareness campaign and to bloom on the Researchers’ night.
The NIGHT activities will take place in 17 cities across Slovenia and will bring together 27 research-related institutions to raise awareness about research and innovation, its social and economic benefits as well as its variety of careers. Over 40.000 visitors from different target groups will take part in the NIGHT activities spread all over Slovenia. Activities will combine science festivals on the main square of four cities, research days in 6 primary and secondary schools, over 30 lectures and workshops in public spaces such as libraries, retirement homes and museums, open doors at the research institutions, science centre and cultural institutions.
