The LISE is a non-competitive international exhibition that aims to promote international relations and the exchange of ideas and cultures among participants, we welcomed young scientist laureates from over an average of 20 different countries.
-Mobisciences (Erasmus +)
Since 2018, about 180 students from five countries that are France, Spain, Morocco, Belgium, and Luxembourg, have travelled throughout Europe to participate in events celebrating science and exchanging ideas. The objective of this Erasmus+ project, started by the FJSL in partnership with the four other countries, is to work towards developing scientific culture among young people through these exchanges.
-Science: next
A platform for meeting and helping young scientists. This program is available to students wishing to acquire “the scientific palette”. Training sessions include: structuring an idea, presenting a project using the scientific method, and finally presenting on stage.
