ABOUT US
“Every child is born as an inventor.”
This is the motto of Bilim Kahramanları Derneği (Science Heroes Association) since it was first found in 2011 with the valuable efforts of a group of volunteers. The aim of the association is to contribute to the public awareness of science and provide a platform where children and young people can learn and experience scientific ways of thinking and approaching matters, also have fun while acting like a scientist. Bilim Kahramanları Derneği has been organizing FIRST® LEGO® League and FIRST® LEGO® League Jr., World Robot Olympiad programmes and Merak Makinesi (Curiosity Machine) project.
It is the 15th season of FIRST® LEGO® League in Turkey, and 3956 children have participated in local, regional and international tournaments since the programme was first started.
