Our Mission

Our mission is to bridge the gap between science and the public through engaging communication.

We aim to support and inspire the next generation of science communicators.

We aim to meet the UWA Grand Challenge of “a more just and equitable world” by contributing to UN Sustainability Goal 4: Ensure inclusive and equitable quality education and promote lifelong learning opportunities for all.
