Abstract
Noč ima svojo moč [The Night has it might] (NOCMOC) [NIGHTMIGHT] project combines a strong awareness campaign embedding a major media campaign and a citizen science project with activities spread all over Slovenia. The core objectives of the NOCMOC project is to raise awareness about the research and its benefits, overcome stereotypes, stimulate curiosity all over Slovenia and excite youngsters to take up the research careers.The awareness campaign will comprise national TV broadcasts, radio broadcasts, press presence and a social media campaign, reaching 100.000 people. The innovative awareness campaign will be based on the Citizen Science Project – Chestnut tracking. We expect, over 1.000 groups, families and individuals will participate in the Citizen Science Project and experience the research methodology-hands on, and above all contribute to the basic research methodology of the real research project.The NIGHT activities will take place in 25 cities across Slovenia and will bring together over 30 research-related institutions to raise awareness about research and innovation, its social and economic benefits as well as its variety of careers. Over 30.000 visitors from different target groups will take part in the NIGHT activities spread all over Slovenia. Activities will combine science festivals on the main square of four cities, science shows, simulations, research days in primary and secondary schools, lectures and workshops in public spaces such as libraries, retirement homes and museums, science espressos, EU corners, open doors at the research institutions, science centre and cultural institutions and many more - altogether over 200 individual activities in 24 hours from day until night.
