Little stars of science

For the fifth consecutive year, the PAR Explora RM Norte will fill GAM's central plaza with astronomical knowledge. Teams of students, ranging from initial education to the fourth year of Basic Education, will present various topics linked to astronomy in this free activity open to the public, organized by the Regional Associative Project, PAR Explora of CONICYT Northern Metropolitan Region and the Gabriela Mistral Cultural Center.

Those in charge of making their work known are boys and girls belonging to the “Your Competencies in Science” (TCC) workshops, an initiative that seeks to awaken the scientific curiosity of students through a playful and participatory methodology, implemented by the Explore CONICYT Program.
