Objectives
- Showcase Core Facilities available to the Alliance as evidence of its unique expertise on issues regarding Global Health.
- Provide insights into research to particular audiences, such as schools, to raise their interest in science.
- Bring the concrete results and outcomes of EUGLOHRIA closer to the public.
- Strengthen the image of the Alliance outside of academia.

Audience
The target population includes the general public/ civil society members, young people, policymakers, as well as researchers and current students from EUGLOH-RIA universities who have a specific interest in global health challenges.
Format
Recorded 360° virtual tours through selected core facilities. Flagship core facilities are video recorded or photographed with a 360° camera to showcase their functions, features, experiments, contributions to Global Health and potential use within EUGLOHRIA. 360° video or picture will be put together in H5P format as a virtual tour to be presented online and distributed at schools and other access points to respective target audiences.
