Science camps
We run hands-on science camps where children and young people learn through experiments, microscopes, games and discussion.
Science by and for the many
Building a more inclusive, collaborative, and accessible future for science.
Together in Science is a Canadian non-profit foundation supporting hands-on science camps, training, science communication, and public engagement for young people and early-career scientists across borders.
Our focus
- Running hands-on science camps for students and young people
- Training the next generation of scientists and science communicators
- Making science accessible to the public
- Supporting equitable research and education partnerships across borders
Our mission
Science should be created, shared, and trusted by more people.
Our mission is to build the next generation of scientists and science communicators by fostering global collaborations, advancing research across disciplines, and engaging the public through training, education, and outreach.
We believe science is strongest when it is inclusive, collaborative, accessible, and shaped by the communities it aims to serve.
Why this matters
Global challenges require global participation in science.
From infectious diseases and antimicrobial resistance to climate change and widening health inequities, the most urgent challenges of our time demand rigorous research, public trust, and meaningful collaboration across countries, disciplines, and communities.
What we do
Four connected areas of work
Training local educators
We train teachers, volunteers and young scientists to continue science activities in their own schools and communities.
Building trust in science
We create friendly spaces for people to ask questions about health, vaccines, climate, microbes and the world around them.
Supporting young scientists
We support students and early career scientists through workshops, mentorship and practical training opportunities.
