Funded projects are based on ongoing research programs and must be aimed at the general public and schoolchildren.

Support from the scientific culture unit
The mediation formats chosen by the promoters are equally diverse: exhibitions, festivals, video productions, educational tours, art-science encounters, school workshops. Projects will be supported by the Cellule de culture scientifique of the Direction de la recherche et de la valorisation. The projects will be completed in 2023, and the resulting resources will be available on the Science-o-thèque. Resources from past editions of the Bourse aux projets de culture scientifique are available online. A total of 36 projects have benefited from this support since 2019.
