APEC Project Participants

The project welcomes all science centres and science museums, in all APEC economies, to participate in this project. No matter how small or how large, the project will benefit from learning about the impacts you are making on your local community. The project plans to showcase the positive impacts that all science centres/museums make, including those with limited resources.

The following institutions have already agreed to participate. Contact officers will be requested to provide data, information and examples of best practice (where appropriate and possible) for the project so that this information can be shared for the benefit of other science centres/museums across the region.
