The project partners of MikroPlaTaS support various educational events concerning plastic in the environment for children and teenagers of all ages.
This includes research projects of single pupils as well as theme days or exhibitions for groups and school classes (in preparation).
Unfortunately the travelling exhibition is only available in German.
The children of the daycare-centre "Paulus" visited the Department of Lake Research of the UFZ in Magdeburg to conduct small experiments and learn about the world of microplastics.
The MExLab surveys microplastics in the river Aa in Münster
Within the project "Form your Future" pupils aged 13 - 15 together with scientists of the WWU Münster sampled the river Aa for microplastics.
