    Lisbon Congress Center
    Lisbon, Portugal

Encontro Ciência (National Science Summit) is a Portuguese annual meeting. It aims at promoting a broad debate on the main topics and challenges of science beyond the world of research. Hence, it stimulates the participation and the interaction among researchers, the business sector and the public.

Based on the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), Ciência 2018’s programme was organized around sessions to stimulate the debate on the design of the future 9th European Framework Program for Research and Innovation, 2021-2028.

The AIR Centre was present in two sessions. While the first session was dedicated entirely to the AIR Centre, the second, organized by the AIR Centre, focused on the Belém Statement.
