Scientifica 23: What holds the world together
Under the motto “What holds the world together”, ETH, UZH and the City of Zurich are inviting everyone along to Switzerland’s largest science festival.
Whether a spectacular drone show, a panel discussion with a former NASA director and an astronaut, or workshops on how to manage conflicts more effectively and reach joint decisions – all this and much more awaits visitors to this year’s Scientifica festival.
City of Zurich: a look behind the scenesDuring the week commencing 28 August, the City of Zurich will be inviting everyone to visit places not normally open to the public: whether it's a drug consumption room, the Lyren water reservoir, a station of the city’s Protection & Rescue team or a day centre for the elderly: find out the crucial role that institutions usually out of the public eye play in society.
For young people, Scientifica kicks off a little earlier on 26 August, with half-day workshops on climate change and biodiversity that present scientific knowledge in a playful way.
The full-day workshop “Computer Science Girls” is a practical introduction to programming, with talks by experienced practitioners.
