Description

IUPAP is the host of two related commissions in physics, all working towards making physics possible in developing world while teaching it better everywhere else. These commissions, C13 and C14, are expected to continually interact with each other so that physics remains the centre of all sciences. In this presentation, C13 commission will present their activities in the past three to five years, to highlight the actions taken to move the development of physics in poor countries of the world, some of which are not even members of IUPAP. In addition, we will discuss the plans in the IUPAP centenary celebrations in 2022, where these twins are expected to lead together and make physics fun afresh
