Partnerships

UP works to promote the making of exhibitions, in association with Universcience staff.

Twenty is a great age! How many adventures have been shared between the FVE and the Groupe PSA Peugeot Citroen in those years! Companies are a sometimes-disregarded source of wealth. The Fondation has opened up the world of science museums to them all the way to China!

Whether the exhibitions were initiated by Universcience or proposed by companies or Research Institutes, UP plays the role of a catalyst : accompanied by specifically designated committees of experts, it participates in the project conception, analysis, evaluation, and follow-up. Regardless of who was at the origin of the project, it is Universcience staff that exercises control of editorial content and museography.

 

In addition, UP and its partners contribute to the educational approach of Universcience in a variety of ways : partners regularly participate in la Cité's or le Palais conferences; some take charge of the educational support material set up in the media library in 2006; others supply educational kits to teachers who want to prepare for visits.
