IPPOG is a network of scientists, science educators and communication specialists working across the globe in informal science education and outreach for particle physics. Particle physics is the science of matter, energy, space and time. IPPOG brings new discoveries in this exciting field to young people and conveys to the public that the beauty of nature is indeed becoming understandable from the interactions of its most fundamental parts - the elementary particles.

Current members come from the 22 member states of CERN, Brazil, Australia, Ireland, Slovenia, South Africa, the USA, and from DESY, CERN, five of the major experiments at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), and the Belle II experiment at KEK's SuperKEKB accelerator in Japan.
