Supporting everyone in the world to get involved in shaping the future of human knowledge.
What is ‘Science for All’
‘Science for All’ is a charity that supports everyone in the world to get involved in shaping the future of human knowledge.
What we do
We recognise that many of the challenges facing the planet today do not have solutions which fall into categories such as ‘public health’, ‘environmental studies’ and ‘education’. We recognise that knowledge takes many forms - this includes people who are subject area experts, people with traditional, Indigenous or local knowledge – and those with big dreams and big ideas.
Our aim is to bring together experts from these diverse areas to work in partnership with as many people as possible by using a combination of free face-to- face events in metropolitan and rural areas, as well as online tools.
We do this through projects like 'Campfires and Science' and 'Wild DNA'.
COVID-19 pandemic response
Science for All is involving people around the world in discussions the response to the pandemic. We are hosting online discussions and decision-making processes to help people all around the world shape ideas, prioritise and act.
Get involved by helping us map international COVID-19 initiatives or sharing your ideas in our Idea Incubator.
You can contact us at info@scienceforall.world for more information.
Standardised Data on Initiatives -STARDIT
We also host projects like 'Standardised Data on Initiatives - STARDIT'
We need a standardised way to describe the ‘who’, ‘how’, ‘what’ and ‘why’ of initiatives such as research, policy, educational interventions, international development and more.
This article about the spread of South African praying mantis through Australia is the first published citizen science paper to report about the data using 'Standardised Data on Initiatives' (STARDIT), a project where we are facilitating the co-design:
