The Science Everywhere project is a mobile scientific educational project that includes science-based shows delivered to children in the form of comedy-drama. This project targets children in hospitals, refugee camps, and host communities in Jordan.
Children are among the most affected by challenging conditions, which can vary significantly. Whether it is wars that disrupt their normal lives, diseases that confine them to hospitals away from their schools, or adverse economic and social circumstances. These situations often yield similar consequences, they frequently keep children out of school for extended periods, leading some to drop out entirely and resulting in a loss of valuable knowledge.
The Children's Museum Jordan developed the "Science Everywhere" project as a mobile educational project that applies science communication through science shows. The shows are an informal educational tool to explain scientific concepts in a clear manner with simple terms that are familiar to children while also using comedy to keep them engaged. The shows are immersive and do not require any physical effort from children which is why they are perfect for the target groups.
Raising hope and curiosity! This project draws a smile on the faces of children in difficult conditions and brings learning to children during chemotherapy sessions, to others who have not been to school because of their refugee status and others who have been isolated in their host communities. The program contributes to helping refugee and sick children end their isolation and to integrating them in society.
