Let’s show what fun science is!

The idea to create a day dedicated to science which young people should actively participate in surfaced during a Science Organization Contact Making Seminar organized by CIRASTI in Paris, France in June 2004.
The idea was taken in charge and became one of the main activities of MILSET Europe.

Concept

A contest, whereby youngsters propose an activity to take place, is organized. The activity must include different dimensions: youth, science & technology, creativity, discovery and education.

Some experiments and scientific cards are designed and provided online. Everybody is invited to contribute to it, starting by the winner.

On a fixed date, the activity is organized all over Europe in schools, youth clubs, etc.
The participants are invited to take photos and videos of the event and share them through this website.

Your imagination is the limit!

Objectives

Show that Science is Fun
Serve as an example of youth’s interest in science and research
Stimulate youth’s decision capabilities and creativity
Promote youth and interschool cooperation
Enforce a European identity among young people
