W związku ze zbliżającym się terminem zakończenia projektu Nie wszystko złoto co się świeci – cykl wystaw fotografii naukowej na ulicach miasta Wrocławia, który przypada na dzień 31 grudnia 2021 roku chcieliśmy podzielić się sprawozdaniem z przebiegu projektu.Projekt skupiał się przede wszystkim na działalności popularyzatorskiej i edukacyjnej, realizowanej poprzez organizację trzech wystaw fotografii naukowej. Wystawy prezentowały prace nadesłane przez studentów, doktorantów i młodych naukowców w ramach międzynarodowego konkursu MANIAC 2020 oraz 2021, a ekspozycje zostały zorganizowane z okazji Dolnośląskiego Festiwalu Nauki 2020 oraz 2021 a także Międzynarodowego Dnia Światła 2021.
W sprawozdaniu podsumowujemy między innymi harmonogram realizacji projektu, podjęte działania promocyjne, wyniki ewaluacji oddziaływania społecznego wystaw a także stwierdzamy czy udało się osiągnąć założone cele.

Zapraszamy do lektury!
