We recognize the importance of improving the scientific and technological literacy of the general public to the end that citizens are motivated to pursue further experiences in these areas and are aided in making informed, responsible decisions about related policy issues having societal implications. To that end, SFI supports a broad range of informal educational activities for the general public.
Periodically SFI collaborates with partners in the local museum community to produce exhibits based upon SFI research results.
