KNOWLEDGE: We will compile and share reliable data about how to improve science education and recruitment.

The children, young people and science programme is built up around four pathways: education, leisure time, vocation and evaluation and knowledge.

Informing educators and our society about the most effective ways to motivate children and young people to learn about science is valuable in and of itself. For VILLUM FONDEN it is important that we know whether we have met the goals of this funding area, as well as which projects proved effective.

Focus:
  • Compiling reliable data that can be used to follow the development of students’ interest and motivation to learn about science and technology, as well as their overall science capital.
  • Evaluation of all funded projects.
  • Best-practice sharing.

We are currently not accepting applications for funding for projects related to this goal.
