Vitenparken

1. Visit our exhibition "Food for Less" in Vitenverden

In the world of science at Vitenparken We have many playful installations that make you think about both your own food choices and how the world's food production should take place in the future. The installations have been developed in collaboration with academia and business, and are intended to give everyone exciting and educational experiences. In the World of Science, for example, you can become a Roaring Panther where you can feel how much energy we use when refilling bottles. The more you refill, the more energy and CO2 you save! You can also take the plunge with our tractor simulator, compose your own digital pizza on PizzaToget and become a precision farmer by hitting the weeds in the game FarmHero. It's time for play and learning!
