Science - Support and networking - British Council

science

Science matters to every single one of us. It affects our everyday lives in thousands of different ways, and the scientific advances of today will shape how our lives change in the future.

British Council provides a creative platform for science communication projects, stimulating a high level of interaction between young people, scientists, and science organisations in the UK, Romania and other South Eastern European countries. We encourage scientific collaboration through the exchange of ideas and knowledge. We aim to build lasting relationships and networks between young scientists.

We work together with science agencies, schools, universities, media organizations and NGOs involved in this area.
