03. 05. 2021

Université de Lorraine launches a call for applications for 15 hours of workshops, entirely in French, to popularize research and make researchers aware of the importance of opening up to the public.

The Science & You training course takes the form of a mediation marathon, workshops will be supervised by pairs composed of a creative person and a mediator. The course also represents a place for meetings and exchanges between young researchers from all horizons. The doctoral students will be welcomed before the conference to be trained in different mediation practices: comic strips, contemporary theatre, dance, object theatre, puppets, escape games or storytelling.

This call is open to all French-speaking doctoral students, regardless of their field of research, their nationality or their experience in science mediation. At the end of the call for participation, 56 young researchers will be selected to participate in the training. The selection criteria are those of diversity and motivation to participate.

The training will take place in Metz from 14 to 16 November 2021. The selected PhD students will continue their awareness of scientific mediation issues by attending the 4 days of the Science&You conference (from 16 to 19 November 2021) free of charge.

Accommodation for the doctoral students will be provided for the duration of the training courses and the conference.

The call for applications is open from 15 April to 28 May 2021. The call for applications is available on the following website: http://www.science-and-you.com/fr/Appel-candidatures-doc
