Panaji, 10th
March 2021: Science is the foundation of
this entire world. We require Science on daily basis in various aspects of our
lives and, with the ongoing pandemic the field of Science has witnessed some of
the greatest inventions, innovations and research as well. With an aim of
inculcating an interest and to gain more knowledge about the world of Science
among the youngsters, the 6th edition of Science Film Festival of
India has been organized on 17th and 18th March, 2021 by Vidnyan Parishad, Goa
to be held at the prestigious Entertainment Society of Goa: ESG Complex and Maquinez Palace.
Every
year, the festival goes on for four days but, this year due to the ongoing
pandemic, it has been restricted to two days. This year, the festival is focusing on
creating interest among rural students in science and technology and, to reach
their goal, the festival has started organizing the pre-fest activities in
various schools across the rural regions of Goa as an outreach program. These
activities have started from 1st March and will continue till 15th
March.
As
always, the festival will be held at ESG
Complex and Maquinez Palace with various events which include screening of the
Science feature films, a workshop for teachers, an exclusive workshop for Press
Reporters & Editors, and also a workshop on film-making as well as a master
class. One of the fascinating facets that can be experienced at the festival
will be an Innovation Exhibition that will showcase and demonstrate out-of-box
thinking used in the world of Science and Technology.
While the festival is around the corner and
with the ongoing pandemic, the festival committee has ensured all the necessary
precautions that are required to make a memorable yet a safe experience for all
its participants.
