With the goal of consolidating planning efforts and ensuring the success of Science in the Park 2026, the Research Committee of Fundación Universitaria María Cano, Popayán Campus, held a new working session to review organizational progress and define strategies aimed at strengthening this important event dedicated to the social appropriation of knowledge.

During the meeting, committee members discussed key aspects related to logistics, institutional coordination, and the development of the various activities that will be part of the event program. They also established actions designed to optimize event execution and build upon the achievements obtained in previous editions.

Over the years, Science in the Park has become an important platform for bringing research closer to the community, fostering knowledge exchange, and strengthening scientific culture throughout the Cauca region. For the 2026 edition, organizers aim to expand its reach and impact through the participation of high school students, teachers, researchers, and members of the broader community.

The event represents a valuable opportunity to showcase research and innovation projects, promote dialogue between academia and society, and encourage public engagement with science. Through interactive and educational experiences, attendees will have the opportunity to explore how scientific knowledge contributes to addressing social challenges and improving quality of life.

As the event draws closer, Fundación Universitaria María Cano continues working collaboratively to deliver a successful edition of Science in the Park 2026, reinforcing its commitment to research, innovation, and the social appropriation of knowledge. Through initiatives such as this, the institution continues to position itself as a leading academic and scientific reference in the region, promoting spaces that connect science, education, and community development.
