"Ciência Viva no Verão" is in its 24th. edition and highlights the Circuito Ciência Viva project, whose motto is "Let yourself be guided by curiosity!". There are activities all over the country, always in the company of specialists. The project has 200 actions, on 500 dates, organized by the Ciência Viva Centers, scientific associations, municipalities and companies.
Ciência Viva - National Agency for Scientific and Technological Culture's mission is to promote scientific culture in Portuguese society, for all audiences, with special emphasis on the younger strata and the school population. Ciência Viva originated in the program with the same name, created by the Ministry of Science and Technology on July 1, 1996. About two years later, Ciência Viva acquires association status with members of public institutions and research laboratories - including Rómulo - Centro Ciência Viva at the University of Coimbra.
