Question: why do you say that you will only organise a science communication day at the school in 'your' village?

Hi 07cwebb,

maybe it could sound selfish to you that I want to go back to my village to do a science communication day, but unfortunately the money of the prize is not enough to do a lot of things in a lot of school. That’s why I thought that if I have to pick one school, that I might as well pick a school where I know that otherwise there won’t be the opportunity for them to get any direct experience with scientist. I could invite different people that work on different subject of science and pay their journey to get there. But to be honest, it doesn’t just have to be my village, there are various villages nearby so it can be extended to other schools as well.
Do you have any suggestions for how would you like the money to be spent?
