XV CONFERÊNCIA PORTUGUESA DE CIÊNCIAS POLARES
XV PORTUGUESE CONFERENCE OF POLAR SCIENCES
November 2 and 3, 2023
Centro de Congressos do Instituto Superior Técnico, Universidade de Lisboa
BEM VINDOS / WELCOMEThe XV Portuguese Conference of Polar Sciences will be held at Instituto Superior Técnico on the 2nd and 3rd of the November 2023, organized by the group of Extreme Environments of Centro de Química Estrutural (CQE).
Like in the previous editions, the conference aims to present the recent advances of the national scientific community in the Arctic and in Antarctica. This year, the conference will also explore the link between Polar Regions and Astrobiology, in particular the potential of the Arctic and Antarctica as terrestrial analogues of celestial bodies of the Solar System. Thus, we would like to invite the Portuguese Polar and Astrobiology communities to join us in Lisbon in November 2023. João Canário and Zita Martins IMPORTANT DATES

VI WORKSHOP EDUCAÇÃO E CIÊNCIA
|
|
Em 2023 chegamos à 6ª edição do Workshop PEI Portugal com a integração deste workshop num dos dias da Conferência Portuguesa de Ciências Polares. Mais um passo nesta ligação Educação-Ciência. Assinalando a década das Nações Unidas das Ciências do Oceano para o Desenvolvimento Sustentável, as atividades decorrerão sob a temática “Uma Maré de Conhecimento”.
Nesta edição haverá espaço de partilha e contacto entre cientistas e professores durante a manhã, assim como atividades de caráter mais prático da parte da tarde sobre como introduzir a Ciência Polar na sala de aula. Esta formação encontra-se em processo de acreditação. |
In 2023 we reach the 6th edition of the PEI Portugal Workshop with the integration of this workshop in one of the days of the Portuguese Conference on Polar Sciences. Another step in the Education-Science connection. Marking the United Nations decade of Ocean Sciences for Sustainable Development, activities will be developed under the theme “A Tide of Knowledge”.
In this edition, in the morning, there will be space for sharing knowledge and establish contact between scientists and teachers, as well as develop more practical activities in the afternoon on how to introduce Polar Science in the classroom. This training is in the accreditation process. |

+ about SOPHIE WEEKS
Sophie Weeks is a science communicator based in Cambridge, UK. Having originally trained in both science and art she enjoyed a 20-year career in Museum and Gallery Education working for the British Library, London Borough of Camden and several University of Cambridge museums. Her passion for the polar regions grew while developing and managing the education and outreach programmes at the Scott Polar Research Institute (SPRI), engaging a wide range of audiences through the Polar Museum and working directly with polar researchers. She participated in IPY2012 Montreal and co-ordinated the PEI 2019 conference in Cambridge, working with colleagues from PEI, SPRI and British Antarctic Survey. She is a member of her local Makerspace and an advocate for Making and constructionist learning. Her passion for engaging people in research and ideas has driven her to produce the Art and Science Soiree, a vehicle for encouraging collaboration between creative thinkers in both the arts and science. From https://polareducator.org/about-pei/council-2022/ She is now the President of The Polar Educators International (PEI) group.
