Mission & Interests
Goals: The European Science Engagement Association, EUSEA, is an international community of public engagement professionals, science festival and science event organizers. The Association comprises about 120 members, including universities, science festival organisations, science centres and museums, municipalities and NGO’s in almost all European countries.
EUSEA has developed from a knowledge-sharing platform for European science festivals to a collaborative community of public engagement professionals, developing and testing new formats of science communication, building relationships with researchers, policy-makers and stakeholders from scientific institutions, HEIs, municipalities and regions. EUSEA supports new initiatives and provides trainings e.g. for members in Southeast Europe and in the Baltic countries, including Russia. Eusea member institutions cover almost all European countries and some non-European states such as Israel, Georgia or Egypt.
