AKjDPG 4: Physics for everyone - Outreach activities for young researchers

Wednesday, March 14, 2018, 09:30–12:40, E 124

Science dissemination plays a fundamental role in a scientist’s life, and it is crucial for everyone involved in academia to raise awareness of the usefulness of science and fundamental scientific research in everyday life. In this session, after a short introduction on the role of outreach projects in a researchers career, we wish to give an overview on successful outreach projects in Europe and beyond, such as EPS Young Minds Project, DPG Physics for Refugees and Sunshine for Palestine. The second part of this session will be in the form of a workshop, where the participants will be divided in groups and assigned a case study to discuss, regarding the planning of an outreach activity for a specific audience.
