The China Union of Science & Technology and Cultural Venues was promoted and organized by the China Association for Science and Technology in November 2021. The Union is committed to promoting horizontal and vertical collaboration, cross-border cooperation and integrated development among related venues, organizations and institutions, and serving as a model for cross-border achievements to create an open and shared ecology of science and technology of integrated development throughout the society, and improve people's ideological, moral, scientific and cultural literacy as well as physical and mental health. The first batch of members of the Union includes 16 leading science and technology venues, cultural venues, social organizations and research institutes, including the Palace Museum, National Museum of China, National Art Museum of China, Geological Museum of China, China Science and Technology Museum, Shanghai Science & Technology Museum, Dunhuang Academy, Beijing Museum of Natural History, National Maritime Museum of China, Chinese Physical Society, Chinese Medical Association, Chinese Association of Natural Science Museum, China Association for Science and Technology (CAST) - Peking University (PKU) Science Culture Institute, Chinese Association for Science and Technology (CAST) - Union of Life Science Societies, China Union for Public Science Literacy, and Preparatory Committee of the World Organization for Scientific Literacy. Two new member institutions, the National Museum of Modern Chinese Literature and the Macao Science Center, were added at the end of 2022.
After being awarded by the CAST as a "National Science Popularization and Education Base" and "National Scientist Spirit Education Base" in March and May last year, Macao Science Center has now joined the China Union of Science & Technology and Cultural Venues, which will be more conducive to integrating with the national development and promoting the integrated and innovative development of science & technology and culture.
