Once again IMDEA Energ\u00eda is participating in the European Researchers\u2019 Night, with a series of activities aimed at families and children between 5 and 10 years old, which will take place on September 29th from 6:00 pm.<\/p>\n
Under the title \u2018The energy of the future\u2019, the aim is to raise awareness from an early age about the importance of the efficient use of resources to build a circular and sustainable world, bringing them closer to the research work in the field of energy through games and experiments. To this end, participants will be guided on a journey through different interactive workshops, in a fun and educational event, in which almost fifty researchers from the center will participate.<\/p>\n
The four workshops are listed below:<\/p>\n
