World of Discovery Raises Awareness at an Early Age

Henkel's Discovery World, implemented in Turkey in collaboration with Yaratıcı Çocuklar Derneği, also provides sustainability education to children and raises awareness at an early age. This meaningful project has opened the doors of science to many children through in-person and online science workshops. Discovery World has written a major success story since its inception, enabling approximately 33,500 children across 26 provinces in Turkey to embark on a journey of scientific discovery.

Inviting students from across Turkey to discover the genius within

Discovery World meets with children through free science workshops held in public schools as part of in-person education, and also invites students from across Turkey to discover their inner genius through online workshops organized free of charge in the distance-learning model. The workshops, where children conduct many fun experiments, are open to applications from schools throughout the country for participation by young researchers aged 8-10. Schools wishing to participate in the workshops need only make an appointment through [email protected]. In this way, all schools and students can benefit from Discovery World science workshops free of charge.

Discovery World appears on the screens of children who want to conduct fun and educational experiments at home through "Discovery World at Home" videos on its digital platform.

Children can watch "Discovery World at Home" videos by searching for "Keşif Dünyası" on the Henkel channel on YouTube. Here, children are awaited by a total of 12 different videos consisting of experiments they can conduct with materials easily found at home, without needing professional laboratory equipment. Through experiments conducted using simple materials found at home, children discover the interesting properties of water, learn how to extract starch from potatoes and make water-soluble films or adhesives from starch. In all these experiments, parents can also accompany their children.     Henkel operates globally with a balanced and diversified portfolio.
