Crafting Curiosity: From Classrooms to CERN 

Supported by the International Visegrad Fund

The main objective of the project: Education and Capacity Building. The project brings together physics teachers from cross-border schools to engage students in hands-on scientific exploration. Teachers will learn how to build a custom detector in workshops, then guide their students through the process, supported by online sessions. The project culminates in a joint field trip, where participants will use detectors to take measurements, deepening their understanding of physics through real-world application.
