Café Scientifique provides a unique forum for the discussion of topical and thought provoking scientific issues in a way that is much more relaxed, informal and accessible than a public lecture.
Each event begins with a short talk from a speaker who is usually a scientist or science writer. The audience consists of people who have an interest in science but generally never have the opportunity to discuss their views on the implications of science for society.
In the British Council, we do it hi-tech. There are usually three countries involved and the event is coordinated via video conference.
You don’t only enjoy the relaxed atmosphere but you are also in a position to meet young people with the same interests and have a wonderful time.
Here is the list of Café Scientifique events that were held during the 2006/2007 academic year, and here you can download the participants’ reviews.

We would like to encourage all students of various universities and faculties in Kosovo to apply via our Library or at cafe.scientifique@ks.britishcouncil.org. The number of places in is limited to 15.
The British Council Kosovo is delighted to host so many vibrant events. If you join us, this is a chance to hear about and discuss via video-conference the latest ideas in science and technology with leading scientists in the UK. You can express your opinions, ask questions or just listen, but whatever you choose to do, you’ll have a wonderful time.
So join us for a chance to chat with leading scientists and air your thoughts on the latest ideas in science and technology.
We are currently planning the Café Scientifique events for 2007/2008 academic year. If you have any comments or suggestions to share or would simply like to know more about this project, please contact member of our Science team.
