In March I attended the World Science Festival, Brisbane, on behalf of the RACI. Held annually in New York since 2008, the World Science Festival is now one of the most celebrated science festivals in the world. Becoming the first city outside of New York to do so, Brisbane hosted an amazing inaugural event! The WSF held its promise and brought some of the world's greatest thought leaders to Queensland, and showcased local scientists and performers from around the Asia-Pacific region. Tasked to explore opportunities of how the RACI can potentially become involved in the WSF, and to collect ideas for public engagement activities we can instigate for next year's RACI Centenary and beyond, I was thrilled to witness how the public and media welcomed and engaged in WSF Brisbane.
