ProgrammesThe European Researchers’ Night is the largest science outreach event in Europe. The 2024 edition takes place on 27 September. In 2024 and 2025, 58 projects will run events in 25 countries.
Universities and research institutes across Europe will open their doors and share their work through presentations, experiments, games, discussions and other interactive formats. It’s your chance to go behind the scenes, meet researchers from your area and discover how the seemingly abstract world of science is already affecting your everyday life.
In the Brussels Capital-Region on 27 and 28 September WiseNight will take place. On Friday, you will have a chance to engage with researchers and learn more about their work in the Planetarium. On Saturday, all activities will take place in the Museum of Natural Sciences. The event is open to all and free of charge.
Since 2022, there is a new format in town! Researchers at Schools brings leading scientists into the classroom and pupils to the lab. It complements the European Researchers’ Night and is run by the same organisers. The difference is that the activities take place throughout the year. They are specifically aimed at little researchers-to-be.

The YoPA project, ‘a youth-centred preventive action approach towards co-created implementation of socially and physically activating environmental interventions’ obtained funding from Horizon Europe’s Health Cluster. The project addresses the multifaceted challenges of physical inactivity and health inequalities through a unique participatory approach. The project places teenagers between 12 and 18 years old in vulnerable situations at the forefront of the intervention process. The Institute of Tropical Medicine is a partner in the project and will conduct a Realist Evaluation to understand how youth co-creation contributes to improved adolescent health and well-being in four cities in Denmark, Netherlands, Nigeria and South Africa. By integrating its results and sharing its approach in an open access Toolbox, ITM aims to contribute to fostering sustainable, youth-led solutions for healthier urban environments.
