The German Science Night is a public event. This year, the programme is particularly targeting high school and young university students.

The event is organised by COSIMENA (Clusters of Scientific Innovation in the Middle East and North Africa). Within the scope of the COSIMENA project, the DAAD Regional Office Cairo organises events that contribute to the networking of science between Germany and the MENA region. Thus, the project aims at making existing cooperation more visible and creating synergies by which potential partnerships are initiated.
