Date: Mon, 13th May 2024 - Wed, 15th May 2024
Venue: PETER Pizzeria
Pint of Science Festival is returning to Loughborough, bringing scientists to cafes, pubs, restaurants and event spaces all across town from 13th to 15th May! We'll be showcasing the newest and coolest of breakthroughs from Loughborough's researchers, and giving you the chance to get involved with interactive activities to win Pint of Science prizes!
What's on? PETER Pizzeria is this year's hub for 'Our Society' events:
Mon 13th May: Climate and You: Through a Social Lens
We'll explore how changes in climate conditions many people have faced disproportionate challenges in terms of natural disasters, displacement, poverty, inequality, and unemployment which all threaten the security of livelihoods and sustainability of societies.
Tues 14th May: Gender Inclusivity: Past, Present and Future
Diversity and inclusivity form the cornerstone of building sustainable and equitable societies. Understanding what this means and how it looks like in a social context is critical in debunking some of the myths and misconceptions pertaining to gender inclusivity, gender-based violence and victimisation of the most vulnerable persons in communities.
Weds 15th May: Children's Rights in Sports
Sports practice and organisation is very significant to the local, national and global economy. Loughborough University, a leading force in global sports development, draws on many disciplines such as sociology, pedagogy and psychology to motivate and enable people's engagement with sport as part of their daily lives.
