Let's Zine It Out!

If you're feeling inspired to get creative after visiting all our researchers, then come along to one of our Zine Workshops and let's zine it out. Working with an A3 page, scissors, collage and colouring materials, create your very own zine packed with colour, thoughts, problems to solve and research ideas. We'll be making zines at 3pm and 6pm, or you can contribute to our Research Tree collage from 4.30pm! All are welcome!

Experience transdisciplinary collaboration and experience how CHARM-EU uses challenge based learning to explore innovative solutions to global challenges. Unleash your creativity and be a part of shaping a brighter future together.

The Centre for Research Training in Artificial Intelligence presents: Inspiring Girls in Science: A Community Conversation

Despite progress toward gender equality in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM), girls and women are still underrepresented. As part of European Researchers’ Night 2025, we are creating a space to listen directly to the public, especially to girls themselves. Our goal is simple: to understand, in their own words, what helps or hinders girls from seeing themselves in science. This will be a participant-driven experience: no scripts, no assumptions, just real voices and honest conversations. We believe that by actively listening to girls and young women, we can uncover genuine barriers, challenge stereotypes and discover fresh ideas to help more girls find their place in STEM. Ultimately, our aim is to spark meaningful change, ensuring that girls’ voices guide the path toward a more inclusive scientific community.
