Spin-Off of Euro4science has started!

After the success of EURO4SCIENCE, the consortium submitted an application to follow up with the project and expand it to new countries and more schools: Euro4science 2.0 is a spin-off of the Euro4science project and uses the “CSI” motto through crime cases to create challenges that students can solve using techniques such as blood type analysis while learning mathematics, chemistry and other subjects in an active and exciting way.

With Euro4science 2.0 the partnership will expand and improve the Toolbox to include activities related to themes such as environment, health and citizenship and will multiply the use of the Toolbox and support materials. The main activities include:

• Improvement of the Forensics Science Education Toolbox by adding new activities and a video library with live demonstrations on how to solve the activities proposed;
• Training hundreds of teachers in Portugal, Poland, Bulgaria, Greece, Turkey and the UK, so that they are able to use the Toolbox and train further teachers for this purpose;
• Create a European Network for Forensic Sciences in Education, with “Hotspots” prepared to train teachers for the use of the Toolbox;
• Organise Forensic Science Festivals in various countries, as well as an International Symposium of Forensic Education.
