Science Festival 2022: Climate awakening
From November 10 to 24, the University of Reunion Island is sounding the climate alarm and putting 4 of its sites at the service of the Science Festival theme.
To celebrate its 40th anniversary, the University of Reunion Island is sounding the climate alarm and is putting 4 of its sites at the service of the Science Festival theme.
This theme is present on a daily basis in the work of our laboratories, whether they study it or observe its effects on their research objects.
Our researchers and teachers will therefore be present in our villages. As are our students, representatives of the generation victims of change and actors of the climate awakening.
We will also welcome our partners to offer a broad and varied overview of the scientific hub of the territory in each of our villages.
Find the program of each village below to plan your visits. Ticket offices will be online from October 13.
