CO-CREATING SCIENCE
Our goal is to engage with the community and co-create science, using best-practices from science education and science communication. We focus on building relationships with the local communities living in Haifa's Hadar neighborhood, where the MadaTech is located. We promote residents' sense of belonging to the museum and their engagement with science.
