""It all really comes down to this: all life is interconnected. We are all caught in an inescapable web of interdependence, bound together in a single garment of destiny. Whatever affects one directly affects all indirectly." - Martin Luther King Jr
Osijek is one of the many cities in the Republic of Croatia where the Science Festival is held, an event that participants and the audience compare to a stage on which student scientists present current topics, thus presenting science and scientific achievements in a popular way.
This year, the Science Festival will be held from May 5th to 10th and the main topic is NETWORKS. Employees and students of the University of Osijek, in collaboration with 23 primary schools, 13 secondary schools and 10 kindergartens, are preparing 400 activities which will be held online and live. The Science Festival organized by the University of Osijek will be attended by 870 participants. In addition to Osijek, lectures and workshops will be held in Đakovo, Našice, Orahovica, Požega, Slavonski Brod, Vinkovci, Bakar; and for the first time abroad (Kindergarten in Vilshofen in Bavaria).
As a reminder, the Science Festival has been continuously organized in the Republic of Croatia since 2003. The theme is determined at the national level, is generally universal and as such fits into all areas of science. During the event, which aims to bring science closer to the public, scientists and students contribute to the popularization of science and motivate young people to research and acquire new knowledge through popular lectures, workshops, discussions, exhibitions and other events.
We look forward to this year's Science Festival and your arrival!
