GLOBAL excursion (Extended Curriculum for Science Infrastructure Online) will provide young citizens and their educators (teachers, parents, etc.) across Europe with a range of e-Infrastructures and access to expert knowledge on its usage for a joyful exploration of e-Science through e-Infrastructure.  The project targets students between 14-18 years of age (upper stage school). Participating schools and science communicators will elaborate communication and teaching activities. The driving themes will be nano- and biotechnologies, as well as volunteer computing and life sciences with an interdisciplinary focus especially including ethical, legal and social aspects (ELSA).

The project starts on 1 September 2011 and is funded by the FP7-INFRASTRUCTURES programme of the European Union.
