On December 1, the Romanian Academy of Scientists celebrates, together with the entire Romanian nation, Romania’s National Day. National Day is the occasion to honor Romanian history and Romanian becoming, the founding identity values, the sacrifices and sacrifices for existence and continuity, the contribution of the ancestors – people and elites, in a vast national synergy – to the building of a European country, with deep roots in history.
Education, science, culture and knowledge have played a fundamental role in the centuries-long process of building and development of the country. Within this framework, the Romanian Academy of Scientists expresses its deep gratitude to the generations of teachers, professors, scientists and men of culture – many of them martyrs of wars or victims of history – who have contributed through their knowledge and dedication to the uplifting and development of the country in the European spirit.
In this complex framework, for the Academy of Romanian Scientists, Romania’s National Day is the occasion for a deep and responsible reflection on the future of the country and the contribution we can make to the edification of the country in the continuity of the process carried out and completed by previous generations.
The Academy of Romanian Scientists, an emblematic academic institution, founded in 1935, which has contributed to Romania’s development through creative intelligence and scientific creation, is involved through its entire activity, through academic education and scientific research in the process of the country’s development. It is a challenge that the AOSR assumes with responsibility and conscience, engaging all its scientific and creative potential in a complex and difficult process, in a world marked by fundamental changes, through the contribution of digital technology, developed at an unprecedented speed. The National Program “Romania of Knowledge”, initiated by AOSR in May 2024 and carried out with prestigious partners, is designed to contribute to the sustainable development of Romania through education, science and knowledge and aspires to become a true Country Project.
On National Day, December 1st, the Romanian Academy of Scientists wishes Romania and all Romanians, from Romania and abroad, Happy Birthday!
