Digital Bridges:
Science, Media, Society
DiBS brings science closer to people across the Western Balkans — through European Researchers' Night, Researchers at Schools, and a new generation of digital science media.
One project, three bridges
DiBS links researchers, schools and citizens into one digital ecosystem for science communication.
European Researchers' Night
Big open-air science festivals in five university cities, plus 30 local events in rural communities — experiments, shows and face-to-face time with researchers.
Learn more →Researchers at Schools
Over 100 schools across the region host researchers in their classrooms — inquiry-based workshops, career talks and hands-on science for 5,000+ pupils.
Learn more →Balkan Science Bridge
The region's first science video magazine — episodes, podcasts and shorts that tell the stories of research, in four languages, on YouTube and social media.

Science without borders, in everyone's language
DiBS — Digital Bridges: Science, Media, Society — is a Horizon Europe project that deepens the relationship between research and society in the Western Balkans. Its goal is simple: to make science visible, accessible and inviting for all, especially young people and rural communities.
Through two editions of the European Researchers' Night, more than 100 Researchers at Schools activities, the DiBS Connect digital platform and the Balkan Science Bridge video magazine, five universities from three countries are building one shared digital ecosystem — in four languages.
