Discovering Science WITH Scientists
The Zoological Station Anton Dohrn is internationally renowned for the expertise and the results of research on marine life and the public has been always involved. It is important to educate young people to respect the marine biodiversity and the habitats and ecosystems around us, especially at sea. The researchers of the SZN are permanently involved in this mission. The SZN improves the education of children of primary and secondary schools with dedicated training programs in order to increase their interest in science and technology, so as to become the researchers of tomorrow, and to contribute to a science-literate society.
The Aquarium and the Sea Turtle Research Centre, are the primary tools to transfer this knowledge and passion to young children, and to strengthen their environmental education, offering at once culture, science education and entertainment.
