These visits aim to enhance students&#8217; scientific and environmental knowledge, familiarize them with the museum\u2019s collections, and introduce them to biodiversity. This initiative underscores the importance of scientific research at the Center, its role in disseminating knowledge and fostering environmental awareness among the younger generation, and the value of bridging theoretical learning with practical application.<br \/>\nThis activity contributes to the achievement of Sustainable Development Goal 4 (Quality Education) and Sustainable Development Goal
