Climate Day

Climate and evolution at the Institute for natural sciences

Candid and open exchanges between pupils and female researchers, with a self-reflexion moment for the children/teenagers. A day around climate, evolution and science.

Every major extinction wave is linked to major climate changes. Climate is thus one of the determining factors in the evolution of life on Earth.

Our guide will take you on a tour of the Institute’s halls to tell you more about climate change and its impact on biodiversity through the history of our planet. 

You will also get actively involved yourself in the climate carousel: using 3 semi-autonomous board games, you will learn about climate and evolution independently.

Finally, scientists from the institute will talk to the group about their research, choice of study and career. They do not shy away from difficult questions!

Activity for schools in cooperation with BeWise
