ISEN-ASTC-L is a service of the Association of Science-Technology Centers
Incorporated, a worldwide network of science museums and related institutions.
*****************************************************************************
Thanks, here in Austria, we skipped the idea (and costs) of a permanent
building, but rely on "science center activities" wherever they might take
place. With the network approach, we can be broader and more flexible in
content and reach. Currently, 140 partners from science communication,
research, education, economy, design etc. join forces to advance the science
center idea.
If you interested in hearing more about this strategy, join the Summit on
Informal Science Education Networks at the ASTC conference.
