Engaging the Public

Physics in Society

The Institute’s physics in society programme aims to inspire people of all ages about physics and engage them in meaningful debate on scientific topics through a variety of activities that capture their imagination, highlight the relevance of physics to their everyday lives and portray physics as accessible, aspirational and curiosity-driven.

To reach as wide an audience as possible, we are committed to encouraging physicists who take physics to their communities through outreach and engagement activities such as hands-on workshops, interactive talks, debates, discussions, websites and performances.

The Engaging the Public section of the website includes information and resources to support anyone who wishes to share their passion for physics with public audiences.  

Physics in Primary Schools
