The European Researchers' Night is a science communication event that takes place every year, in several European cities, with the purpose of promoting awareness and the population's involvement in science, bringing researchers and civil society closer together.

This year the Coimbra NEI will take place on 30 September, as part of a National Consortium formed by the Universities of Coimbra (UC), Lisbon, Évora and Minho and will have the theme "Science for All - Sustainability and Inclusion". The 2022 and 2023 editions of NEI aim to involve the general public, with a special focus on young students and the older population.

The Institute of Interdisciplinary Research (iiiUC), as the representative of the UC, in collaboration with the Coimbra Downtown Promotion Agency and the support of municipal entities, is organising a programme full of activities.
