NOTICE
Science Literacy Week has come to an end.
As the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada (NSERC) is no longer in a position to lead and administer Science Literacy Week, the initiative has regrettably come to an end.
After eight years of events and activities, Science Literacy Week celebrated its last edition in September 2023. Thank you to all the science promotion and outreach champions from across Canada who have made this celebration possible and have contributed to nurturing Canada’s science culture!
If your organization is interested in assuming the leadership of this national science promotion campaign, please contact us.
About
Science Literacy Week showcases the many ways kids and families can explore and enjoy the diversity of Canadian science. Libraries, museums, science centres, schools and not-for-profits come together to highlight the books, movies, podcasts and events that share exciting stories of the science, discoveries and ingenuity shaping our lives.
Posters
Over the years, Science Literacy Week and its partners developed educational posters featuring illustrations and texts by talented Canadian illustrators and science writers. All posters on science, space, oceans, biodiversity, climate and mathematics are available to download for free.
