Testimonial
“We would like to express our sincere gratitude to the leadership and staff of the Singapore Science Centre for organizing our training program. Each speaker provided valuable insights in their respective fields, which we are eager to integrate into the activities of the Almaty Museums Union. The training method was new to us, combining theoretical knowledge with practical and useful information. Upon returning to Kazakhstan, we plan to propose the implementation of some of the methods and case studies presented to us by the Centre’s staff.
We were also impressed by the Centre’s strategies for attracting funding and sponsors, and we are keen to adopt some of these approaches as examples for our own work. Furthermore, the Centre’s overall mission is particularly relevant in today’s world, where smartphones are becoming children’s “best friends.” Encouraging their interest in science and culture is the only way to address this issue.
We wish the Singapore Science Centre continued growth and success!”
