SCIFEST AFRICA 2012
14-20 MARCH 2012
SCIENCE ROCKS!
 
Scifest Africa is South Africa’s National Science Festival and aims to promote the public awareness and engagement with science, technology, engineering, mathematics and innovation (STEMI).

The project consists of two components, namely the annual week-long National Science Festival held in Grahamstown in March every year, as well as a range of local, regional and national outreach programmes implemented around the country throughout the rest of the year.

Scifest Africa 2012 will take place in Grahamstown, Eastern Cape from 14-20 March 2012 and we invite you to join us and make this the festival that rocks all festivals.

The theme for Scifest Africa 2012 is “Science rocks!” and will explore Earth sciences, archaeology, palaeontology, astrobiology, GIS, chemical and civil engineering, music... and any other -ology or -graphy you can think of that has anything to do with rocks.

Applications for exhibitions and workshops for the 2012 programme are now open and can be downloaded here.

Look out for the Scifest Africa 2012 Programme on our website at the end of January, or e-mail us at info@scifest.org.za, should you wish to be added to our mailing list.
