Science World Outreach
Science World runs a variety of outreach programs all over the province of British Columbia, including at their classroom in Aberdeen Centre in Richmond, BC, and in more remote locations such as Haida Gwaii and Ladysmith.
Their On the Road programmers travel throughout the province to conduct workshops and present science-themed shows in schools and communities that, otherwise, would not have access to a local science centre. As part of their Super Science Club program, Science World educators conduct after-school programs in designated inner-city schools to inspire at-risk children to become passionate about lifelong science and technology learning. Science World's Opening the Door program offers high-school students with an interest in science-based careers the opportunity to network with current science professionals.
