Scientific paper

Currently our society needs more and more scientists and technicians in order to continue its development. Moreover some areas of our society seem to be less and less interested in scientific issues. It is not possible to value something when we have no knowledge of it. This paper presents an example of a programme carried out in several Science Museums in Spain which puts the average citizen in contact with science.
The main objectives of this project are:
• to find innovative ideas in order to present science in a more attractive way
• to emphasize the international nature of science
• to stimulate European contacts
• to produce materials for different levels of education
• to involve researchers in science communication
• to increase the scientific knowledge of citizens
• to promote science within the society of participating countries
• to reward the professional work of teachers and professors in their teaching activities
• to recognize the efforts of journalists specializing in science
