VisionThe aim of Galathea 3 is to strengthen Danish research, not only by virtue of the implementation of specific research projects onboard, but also in relation to the international research network of which Denmark is a part. At the same time, Galathea 3 is intended to provide a boost for the recruitment of new scientists in the future!
There is thus a considerable amount of ambition as concerns education and dissemination of research information attached to the project. Galathea 3 is to enhance the Danes’ perception of modern science as relevant and meaningful, and bring especially natural science research into primary and upper secondary schools in a form that appeals to a combination of adventurousness, curiosity and insight. With a direct satellite link from the expedition ship to classrooms in Denmark, it will be possible to include the research carried out on Galathea 3 actively in classroom teaching, and show the flesh and blood realities of being a research scientist.
