Outreach for Plant Biology
Here you can find information and ideas for activities to reach out to our communities and the public and spread interest and appreciation in plants and plant research. We would love to include additional suggestions if you have some to share - you can send them to the Education Director of CSPB at education@cspb-scbv.ca.
OUTREACH SUGGESTIONS
International Fascination of Plants Day (FoPD) - Annually in May
Started by plant scientists, the goal of this day is to spread the fascination of plants and the importance of plant science. This is a great day to share your research on social media or organize an event for students, educators and/or the public about your favourite plants. The FOPD webpage is a great place to explore past events to get ideas, and to find editable tools and other helpful resources.
American Society of Plant Biologists (ASPB) Outreach Resources
Check out the resources on the ASPB Public Engagement and Outreach webpage to find information to help you communicate your science, and organize outreach events.
