OUTREACH AND EDUCATION
LKCNHM Thursday Talk Shop Series
This May school holidays, the Outreach and Education Unit (OEU) organized a new web-talk series, ‘Thursday Talk Shop’. These online sessions saw our Education officers chat with special guest speakers about their work experiences in the field of biodiversity. We shared about LKCNHM’s research and education efforts, and had special guest appearances from other Museum staff as well.
The response to these sessions was overwhelming and we had a total of over 600 participants tuning in. We reached out to young children, school students, working adults, parents and professors and received positive feedback from them about this new online educational experience from the museum. At LKCNHM, we hope to engage and inspire students and the public through biodiversity education and we are glad that this virtual programme has allowed us to do that.
