Special Educational Events Programme ''Science in Society''

The NHRF, in its effort to transmit scientific knowledge both to young scientists as well as to the wider public, has for a number of years organised Special Educational Events which take the form of lecture cycles. The themes for these cycles are chosen mainly in relation to the research programmes of the Institutes of the NHRF and a large number of the talks are undertaken by researchers of the Institutes. The transcribed texts of these lectures are available in books.

At the same time, within the framework of the ''SCIENCE IN SOCIETY'' programme, funded by EPET II, which aims at the opening of science to the general public and its familiarisation with scientific developments and the research which is carried out in the country's Research Centres, through systematic and ''live'' information - the NHRF has produced six scientific documentaries on video. These aim to present and publicise part of the scientific programmes carried out in its Institutes. See more
