Ecsite is the European Network of Science Centres and Museums, with around 340 members in more than 50 countries who connect and engage with over 40 million people per year. Ecsite links science centres, science and natural history museums, zoos, aquaria, universities and research organizations in Europe who participate as active members sharing a strong commitment to public engagement and the communication of science through accessible, interactive exhibits and programmes.
Our mission:
Ecsite promotes public engagement of science and technology by facilitating cooperation among Europe’s science centres, museums and related institutions throughout Europe: establishing standards, sharing expertise, disseminating best practice, encouraging collaboration and developing training programmes. The organisation has extensive experience in projects with the financial support of Community programmes and initiatives, including several in a coordinating role.
Ecsite advocates for the field of science communication by building on the diversity of its membership and strengthening cooperation between the research, education, cultural and media sectors.
Ecsite works with its global partners to connect the world with European approaches and values. We collaborate with science communication networks from all other parts of the world in an effort to refresh ideas and pursue international interests.Main EU files targeted
