Chatham Science Fest

From Afternoons, 1:35 pm on 9 August 2022

The goal is to get science to the most remote places in New Zealand. Well you can't get much more remote than The Chatham Islands.

The Chatham Island's Festival of Science kicks off next Tuesday, with science organisations up and down the nation coming together for this event that have Chatham locals excited.

One of the team heading over with some great science to share is Otago Museum's Science Engagement Coordinator Jessa Barder. She talks to Jesse about the event.
