- the young minds to be opened for the challenges in careers of modern scientists; - the scientists to be approachable as their results should be applicable and important for the society, and not only for the academia and - the general audience to be aware of the fact that science is a key to everyday life improvement and progress

ReFocuS

ReFocuS aims to refocus:

Inspired by, at that time, current situation in Europe - migrations

We aim to ReFocuS public attention to modern EU concept and concept of modern science: (i) mobility of researchers and ideas, as a basis for economy and social prosperity, and transdisciplinarity of the research, as the essential concept of contemporary research and communication.

Science for all

ReFocuS also promotes the migration of knowledge and promotes the concept

of Science for all. This includes the decentralization of science popularization in

Serbia, giving the equal opportunities and activities to the parts of Serbia

outside the capital and major cities.

Roman roads

ReFocuS is gathered around historical routes in Serbia such as Via Militaris, and its follower Imperial Road, and contemporary roads such as highway.

Roman roads

We focused on these roads not only as migration routes, but also as routes of progress in both the region and Europe. We organized events in seven cities throughout Serbia: Belgrade, Niš, Pirot, Kragujevac, Požarevac, Petnica and Inđija.
