Meet the IAU Astronomers!
Meet the IAU Astronomers! Programme
The Meet the IAU Astronomers! programme connects amateur astronomers and informal and formal educators with IAU member astronomers for virtual or in-person events. Through these meetings, the IAU members speak with children, adults, undergraduate students and other members of the public on astronomical research topics, the importance of astronomy for society, and choosing astronomy as a career. Astronomy clubs, libraries, undergraduate programmes, and all other groups interested in astronomy are invited to apply to host an IAU astronomer!
The Meet the IAU Astronomers! programme aims to enable any community to meet professional astronomers and share the wonders of the Universe, regardless of where they are in the world.
