Christmas arrives in the Canary Islands with knowledge at its core, offering a special December program designed to surprise and delight audiences of all ages with innovation, technology, and science.
Robots, gaming, and telescopes are some of the highlights of the 6th edition of Canarian Scientific Christmas, an initiative of the Ministry of Universities, Science, Innovation, and Culture of the Canary Islands Government, through the Canary Agency for Research, Innovation, and Information Society (ACIISI), to promote scientific and innovative culture among citizens.
"When the Gift is Knowledge"
The knowledge society transforms what we learn and discover into resources for effective action. In this vein, the Canary Islands Government continuously strives to make knowledge publicly accessible, working with universities, schools, and research institutes as creators of scientific, innovative, and technological expertise.
