Knowledge “to go”
Researchers are asked to make their knowledge accessible to society. The Museum für Naturkunde Berlin can look back on a long tradition in this regard, but now addresses knowledge transfer once again.

Opinion Boxes
Between September 2017 and May 2018, visitors found boxes in front of various objects in the permanent exhibitions, asking for their opinions on ethical issues. The opinion boxes are temporary exhibition elements in the Museum für Naturkunde Berlin and were conceived as part of a co-design process as part of the third-party funding project Visitor Participation. The construction and development (production of the boxes, programming, insertion and card output module) was carried out in cooperation with the interaction designer Michael Jurisch.

Wasp named after magical wand from Harry Potter
In January we presented this new wasp species of the genus Dolichurus to our visitors. It lives in Papua New Guinea and belongs to the family of cockroach wasps. We received numerous name suggestions - from visitors to the exhibitions, but also by e-mail - and selected the 10 most suitable names with a jury. In a second round, our visitors chose the most popular name in the exhibitions: elderus, named after the Elder Wand from the Harry Potter books.

Mercator Projekt - Open Science
Exploring Citizen Science for the development of Open Science in Europe Under the slogan "open innovation, open science, open to the world", the European Commission promotes innovation in Europe and aims at changing the science system fundamentally. The stakeholder-driven European Open Science Policy Platform (OSPP) advises the European Commission on this issue. Citizen science and participatory approaches are seen as a core element of Open Science, helping to bring science effectively into society.

Naturblick - Discovering Nature in the City
Green cities offer space for experience, recreation and encounter. But only a conscious approach to nature in the city makes it possible to appreciate and promote it. In the project we help strengthen awareness of nature in the city and provide environmental education digitally.
