Dr. Nidal Musleh, Scientific Director of the Applied Research Center at the Galilee Society, welcomed participants, emphasizing the importance of bridging research institutions and the education sector. He stated that scientific knowledge is incomplete until it becomes a practical tool for societal development, with teachers being crucial in transmitting this knowledge to future generations. He added that the goal is to foster research, exploration, and critical thinking among students to prepare a generation capable of facing environmental and scientific challenges and contributing to a sustainable future.
Environmental Inspector Samia Abu Khait highlighted the significance of partnership between research institutions and the education system, stressing the role of science in building a conscious and sustainable future. She noted the conference's focus on integrating AI into scientific research as a tool for innovation and on the environmental footprint in the context of climate change to promote responsibility and sustainability. Workshops were designed for practical application and transforming theoretical knowledge into educational practices.
The program included lectures by Dr. Adnan Ighbaria on integrating AI in scientific research and by Dr. Sari Assaleh on root interactions in saline soil conditions. Professor Abdelfattah Nasser lectured on the environmental footprint under climate change, and Professor Mohammed Hajajreh discussed science, humanity, and nature. The conference also featured a "Terrarium" workshop for building miniature ecosystems and parallel sessions on natural soap and cream preparation, an environmental escape room, and a tour of research labs. The event concluded by underscoring the importance of linking scientific research with educational practice to develop science teaching methods and foster scientific thinking and environmental awareness in students. A segment also honored researchers who presented scientific projects for school students.
