• ABOUT

     
    The Communicating Astronomy with the Public (CAP) Conference is the only large-scale, international conference for astronomy communication. The conference is targeted towards professionals from science communication, informal education, planetaria and science centres, as well as professional and amateur astronomers, journalists and creative personalities.
     
    CAP 2024 will be the 11th in the series of conferences organised by the International Astronomical Union (IAU), through Commission C2 Communicating Astronomy with the Public, and the IAU Office for Astronomy Outreach (OAO). Since 2003, CAP conferences have facilitated the exchange of ideas and best practices. The conference helps strengthen the local community of professionals by connecting them to the global network. In 2024, the 11th will be hosted by La Cité de l'espace, Toulouse, France.
