to the public.
This call will be of interest to science communicators, public understanding
of science experts and organisations involved in the promotion of scientific
information; museums, science centres, research organisations, etc.
Applications must focus on one of more of the following areas:
* Dialogue with the public

Proposals selected for European Science Week will form the 2003 European
Week, which usually takes place in early November.
