Description

Observing things that are too small to be seen with a human eye is not easy. Yet, at CERN scientists are studying the smallest building blocks of our universe, elementary particles, on a daily bases.

Making this concept graspable and introducing kids, students and the general public to the scientific ideas as well as the required technologies behind it is a challenge which is in no way inferior to the ones in physics research.

This two-day programme will introduce its particitpants hands-on to science communication and education offers at CERN. In addition, a specific focus will be put on bringing science on stage. Visits to different CERN facilities will round up the programme.
