The EPPOG - European Particle Physics Outreach Group is a group of researchers and advisers concerned with the dissemination of physics of particles and associated activities within the area. The genesis of EPPOG is the ECFA and the panel of High Energy Physics of the European Society of Physics, and was born at CERN in 1996. You can view your page for more information. One of the more visible activities, organized by EPPOG, are http://www.physicsmasterclasses.org EPPOG's International masterclasses in Particle Physics, which occur annually during 16 days in 80 locations throughout Europe, USA, South America and Africa South, and that for almost 5000 students from secondary schools.
