Science Festival 2022: Fill the Entertainment

As every year, from October 7 to 17, the Science Festival will take place. City Council 10^e
Committed to reviving this important moment. The relationship between science and society is indeed of unique importance today.

The pandemic has shaped the public’s relationship with scientific knowledge as a major issue in our society. Understand what science can and cannot say, understand methods of knowledge, interpret statistics, etc. The lack of a solid public scientific culture is a democratic weakness.

At the same time, the ability to act in our highly artificial world is closely connected with technical knowledge, that is, with technical culture. From the simple fact of cooking, knowing how to sew, and mastering digital tools to the point of freeing yourself from the most predatory commercial distros for your privacy, DIY, the basics of chemistry to making your cosmetics free from pollutants and without waste, tech cultures are also the means of individual and collective liberation.

The science fair aims to:

This year, the science fair theme is gaining special significance after the summer we just had: “Climate Change, Mitigation and Adaptation.” Science as a unique means of controlling our collective destinies, between the three pitfalls of grief, denial, and the magical thinking of technical solutions.

To help you understand the world of tomorrow through discussions and scientific innovations, several associations in 10^e They have created a program rich in discoveries for you!

An artistic installation that blends art and digital will allow you to trace the evolution of climate across time and space! An image of the Earth will be shown on a semi-spherical surface to represent the distribution of heat around the globe.
