DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Steven Goldfarb (University of Michigan)\nThe Intern
 ational Particle Physics Outreach Group (IPPOG) is a network of scientists
 \, science educators and communication specialists working across the glob
 e in informal science education and outreach for particle physics. The pri
 mary methodology adopted by IPPOG requires the direct involvement of scien
 tists active in current research with education and communication speciali
 sts\, in order to effectively develop and share best practices in outreach
 . IPPOG member activities include the International Particle Physics Maste
 rclass programme\, International Day of Women and Girls in Science\, World
 wide Data Day\, International Muon Week and International Cosmic Day organ
 isation\, and participation in activities ranging from public talks\, fest
 ivals\, exhibitions\, teacher training\, student competitions\, and open d
 ays at local institutions. These independent activities\, often carried ou
 t in a variety of languages to public with a variety of backgrounds\, all 
 serve to gain the public trust and to improve worldwide understanding and 
 support of science. We present our vision of IPPOG as a strategic pillar o
 f particle physics\, fundamental research and evidence-based decision-maki
 ng around the world.\n\nhttps://indico.ific.uv.es/event/6178/contributions
