British Science Festival 2022: Open Call for proposals

BU research, Events, Impact, Knowledge Exchange, Public engagement ballen

Do you have an idea to engage public audiences with science and research?

The British Science Festival are now accepting event proposals for the 2022 Festival in Leicester, hosted by De Montfort University. 

Proposals are welcome from individuals, researchers, industry professionals, artists, writers, organisations, charities, academic institutions, and more. Festival proposals should be aimed at non-specialist adults (16+) with a broad interest in science.

Festival organisers are looking for events that showcase cutting-edge science, celebrate the latest developments in science and technology and engage their audience in open discussion about relevant issues that affect culture and society. They aim to programme a range of formats from talks to drop-in activities and creative content that challenges perceptions of what science is and can be.

Highlights from the 2021 Festival can be found here

More information, including how to submit a proposal, can be found here

The deadline for proposals is 5pm on Monday 14 February 2022.

If you have any questions, please contact Anna Woolman anna.woolman@BRITISHSCIENCEASSOCIATION.ORG 

Alternatively, please contact Adam Morris (BU Engagement Officer) if you would like advice on planning or submitting your proposal publicengagement@bournemouth.ac.uk
