Ciencia Puerto Rico has relaunched its website, CienciaPR.org, as part of the organization’s 20th anniversary, unveiling a redesigned bilingual platform for scientists, students, educators, organizations and community members connected to Puerto Rico. The nonprofit said the site aims to strengthen collaboration and visibility across its network of more than 17,000 members located in Puerto Rico, the United States and other countries.
The site, originally launched in 2006, has served as a digital hub connecting people in science, education and community engagement. The redesign adds organizational memberships for universities, schools, nonprofits, foundations and companies, and highlights CienciaPR’s work in science communication, community initiatives, K-12 STEM education, and scientific talent development. Greetchen Díaz-Muñoz, executive director of CienciaPR, said the relaunch "represents much more than a technological upgrade" and reaffirms the organization’s commitment to strengthening Puerto Rico’s scientific ecosystem.
The platform features an Educational Resources Catalog with digital materials adapted to Puerto Rico’s context, and the Latinas in STEM Collection, described as one of the largest digital collections of its kind, featuring more than 450 profiles of women in STEM fields. Free memberships give users access to a forum listing jobs, internships, scholarships and research opportunities.
