Since 2005, the European Union has been promoting this day with the aim of bringing researchers closer to the public through informative, dynamic and fun activities. In this way, the aim is to attract the attention of society to science, especially young people, in order to encourage vocations in science and technology. In addition, the European Research Night has a special commitment to promote the gender perspective in science, i.e. to raise awareness of research led by women in the region.
