Накратко на български
Научната дейност в Макаронезия се фокусира върху екологичните предизвикателства и приоритетите на Европейския зелен пакт. Популяризирането на тези теми помага на младите хора да се насочат към STEM кариери и да разберат ползите от местните изследвания за ежедневието им.

Researchers' Night of Macaronesia
The Macaronesian region is an outermost region of the European Union which, even though it has a great potential to be a living lab for most of the EU Green Deal priorities the majority of the population in the region does not have a solid overview of the reserach conducted in the islands and of the opportunities it has to offer for science. The Macaronesian society has not developed its human potential in STEM with many researchers working in the islands being from continental Europe. The overall objective of MACARONIGHT 2021 was to organise a shared Researchers’ Night for the Macaronesia Region connecting the population of these islands under the umbrella of the universal language of science. By focusing on the scientific and technology areas identified in the Smart Specialization Strategies for the Canaries, Madeira and the Azores the consortium aimed at raising public awareness for research areas that could be the greatest benefit for the Region. The project also supported the public recognition of researchers, creating an understanding of the impact of researchers' work on citizen's daily life. In addition, Macaronight 2021 focused on the European Green Deal and its effects on the Macaronesian region. The project aimed to: ●further increase awareness of the research and innovation activities across the Region; ● encourage young people to embark on scientific careers; ● support the public recognition science and local researchers; ● create an understanding of the impact of researchers' work on citizens' daily life; ● discuss the work that scientists from the Region are doing in fighting global environmental challenges; ● increase the visibility of the participating researchers also in Europe.

Цел на проекта
Macaronesia is a biogeographical region of five archipelagos in the Atlantic Ocean of which four are inhabited: Azores (Portugal), Canarias (Spain), Madeira (Portugal) and Cape Verde (Cabo Verde). These islands share common geographical traits and similar challenges with regards to climate change, environmental degradation and loss of biodiversity. The Canary Islands, Madeira and the Azores are part of the European Union (EU Outermost Regions). The overall objective of this project is to organise a shared Researchers' Night for the Macaronesia Region for the fourth consecutive year connecting the population of these remote islands under the umbrella of the universal language of science. This new edition, MACARONIGHT 2021 aims at further widening public awareness towards science, research and innovation, especially in areas where the Region faces global challenges, such as those identified in the European Green Deal. The aim is to reach out to the population in general yet keeping specific focus on teenagers and young parents with kids in particular. The project will deploy an enhanced social-media strategy that aims to engage with citizens of different ages in their own words through their daily used channels. Activities will cover 16 islands with the ""main"" activities organised at 4 locations: Tenerife (La Laguna), Gran Canaria (Las Palmas), Madeira (Funchal), Azores (Ponta Delgada). The programmes will be organised as ""hybrid"" online/physical events that will attract 30 thousand participants in total. We expect that the introduction of the Green Deal topic for 2021 will be translated into active change in the region's compliance with Green Deal objectives and the overall vision described by Climate KIC's strategy, ""Transformation in Time"".""
