Networking Event Inside Class Zero Emission  On Wednesday April
29th, 2009, the Flemish Government's department of Economy,
Science and Innovation organized an afternoon of networking
within the framework of a science communication action plan. As
co-organizer of the meeting, the International Polar Foundation
made its pedagogical workshop "Class Zero Emission" available
for the occasion. All organisations active in science
communication and popularization in Flanders were invited to the
event.  After a short presentation by IPF's science education
manager, Sandra Vanhove, an introduction to the "zero emission"
concept of the Princess Elisabeth Station in Antarctica was
given by project coordinator, Johan Berte. The documentary
"Station Princess Elisabeth: Building the Future" was shown to
the public to illustrate the Station's scientific context. Prof.
Hugo Decleir then added a basic overview about the scientific
research to be undertaken at the Princess Elisabeth Station,
before the meeting  was rounded off
