Inspiring Stars
Overview
The Inspiring Stars programme helps organisers implement inclusive outreach practices into their work so more people can engage with astronomy. In partnership with the IAU EC Working Group on Astronomy for Equity and Inclusion, we provide know-how and a network of support for those who wish to hold inclusive astronomy outreach events and programmes.
Publications and Resources
Publications and resources on inclusive astronomy outreach practices can be found on the IAU Working Group on Astronomy for Equity and Inclusion website: http://astro4inclusion.org
The ‘Inspiring Stars’ exhibition is a travelling exhibit that highlights the concept of “inclusion” in outreach, education, research, and other aspects of astronomy. The printable exhibit panels are presented alongside inclusive, community-sourced projects.
