Hi there, And I'm inclined to agree also! Although please do keep sending me science competitions and events for 5-19 education.

It seems there’s quite a lot of support for having some sort of central calendar of awards/competitions. I’ve had an offer of support to help compile the list, which is wonderful. Two people have also offered to host. Rebecca’s School Science – but I think there is a general feeling that a list of PE/Sci Com competitions isn’t quite right for the School Science website. The National Coordinating Centre for Public Engagement have also said they can host a list. I’m inclined to go with the NCCPE as it feels like a central place that most people in the sector will be aware of – what do people think? All the best Helen From: psci-com: on public engagement with science [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Paolo Arru Sent: 11 January 2016 16:03 To: [log in to unmask]<mailto:[log in to unmask]> Subject: Re: [PSCI-COM] Competitions, prizes and awards Dear all, I do agree with Bella on that. As undergraduate students, I feel the list might be too school-focused. I find this "list project" a very exciting one and I am looking forward to seeing more of it, as I am one of the students always on the lookout for such experiences (which are sadly not widely advertised in universities). Moreover, I do believe Under-, Postgrad students and professionals will definitely benefit from this list. Unfortunately I cannot advice on anything, but I am grateful someone is doing it!

It would be really useful to have all of this in one place.

I had a quick look, but it looked as if it was mostly science competitions, rather science communication/public engagement competitions. It's great that you're able to add these competitions to your list. Would the inclusion of engagement/communication competitions/prizes skew your list too much?
