High school visits and children's educatio
To ensure that the younger generation is fairly informed about synthetic biology and iGEM competition in general, our team spent several months on communication with schools of Lithuania while arranging visits and giving talks. The aim of these visits was to spread the knowledge to students both with scientific and non-scientific profile. Our team visited 11 schools in 6 cities, met 530 pupils aged from 7 to 18 years old and got filled 214 questionnaires by high school students. Adding to that, we had a chance to run workshops in "The Centre for Child Development" for children with developmental, mental and behavioural disorders or children who have experienced abuse and violence. What is more, we participated in an annual event “Children’s University”, where we turned our attention to children of 11 to 15 years old and organised workshop, called 'Create your own bacteria'.

Competition for school students - “A Day of Scientist”
Our team believes that one of the most important things for the world’s successful future is the connection between science and schools. That is the reason, why we decided to announce a competition for secondary school students, called “A Day of Scientist”. The winners of this competition had an extraordinary opportunity to visit the biggest and the most innovative science centers in Lithuania: ThermoFisher Scientific Baltics and Vilnius University Life Sciences Centre.
