LENScience | The Liggins Education Network for Science

LENScience brings together schools, scientists and health professionals to invest in adolescent empowerment. Through school-science partnerships LENScience assists schools to facilitate locally relevant learning programmes that support adolescents to become critically engaged citizens. This means young people who have the capabilities required to seek out and make sense of evidence from within and beyond their communities to understand societal issues, and who are motivated and empowered to act on this learning. Programmes examine issues that impact the current and future health and wellbeing of adolescents and their potential future offspring.
