Paedo Alert News was an English-language international magazine aimed specifically at homosexual pedophiles, officially published in the Netherlands[1][2] between 1979 and 1985 by the Spartacus association. Roughly bi-monthly, the magazine contained news, articles, essays, photography, information on pedophilia and childhood and other material of interest to pedophiles. Academicians such as Edward Brongersma and Frits Bernard were frequent contributors to the magazine.

It begun publication as Pan: a Magazine about Boy-Love[3] in June 1979. Following a legal threat from the unrelated imprint Pan Books, the original name was changed to Paedo Alert News (P.A.N.) in the 13th issue.
