Science for kids

Fancy helping translate the latest science into something for kids? Get in touch!

We’re on the hunt for a few people to help review Planet Presses (http://www.egu.eu/education/planet-press/), bite-sized press releases for kids. One of the problems with a non-expert taking something and turning it into kids’ speak means that some key details could be lost. This is where you come in!

If you, or someone you know would be interested in reviewing Planet Presses, send an email detailing your interest and areas of expertise to Bárbara Ferreira at media@egu.eu.
