Description
The International Union of Pure and Applied Physics (IUPAP) aims to assist worldwide strengthening and promotion of physics across all disciplines, particularly in developing countries. It does this through Commissions and Working Groups, each comprising of country representatives on a rotational basis. Commission C14 on Physics Education, also called the International Commission of Physics Education (ICPE) does this through engagement of Commissioners around mandates for each rotation – a term. Activities include publishing and disseminating handbooks, circulating a newsletter, awarding a medal and supporting conferences. This poster presents a description of these activities as well as snapshots from some Commissioners.
