Joint projects
You are a former Science on Stage festival participant and developed a project with a teacher from another country? You want to share it with us at the next European Science on Stage festival? Then apply with your 'joint project'!
Besides the regular national STEM teacher delegations there are several additional places at the European Science on Stage festivals for teachers offering internationally developed projects - the so called 'joint projects'.
The festival committee decides upon your application and your participation in the event. The project should be:
- from teachers from two different countries that decided to develop a project together and of whom at least one participated at a European Science on Stage festival
- for the evaluation obvious in its development or its progress in the course of time
Teachers with joint projects can directly apply at Science on Stage Europe for the next European Science on Stage festival in Prague. Detaied information will be give by time.
