The action will result in the implementation of at least 20 didactic innovations. 2. Shaping the public perception of Polish science. Conducting a series of lectures in primary and secondary schools. Scientific achievements and experiments will be presented in an accessible way to interest young audiences in scientific research. The action will result in the implementation of at least 30 lectures. 3. Developing and implementing a concept for the development of research and teaching staff Activities will focus on young research and teaching staff. The concept assumes the development of assumptions and the conduct of a series of calls for minigrants financing scientific research.
