An overview of Science on stage Europe 2019 

This non-profit organization was born in 2000 and has reached more than 100,000 teachers across Europe and Canada. Its biennial festivals are educational science fairs for and by participants which have been held for instance in Prague, Portugal, Hungary, Germany-Poland, London and Copenhagen, among others. 

Science on Stage Europe believes that the best way to improve science education and encourage more students to consider a career in science and engineering is to motivate and inform their teachers. 

In addition, four Science on Stage Canada/Science sur Scène Canada (SoSC) delegates were honored in Europe.
