The SOC is also offering English language editing support to applicants who may need it. This support is limited to editing/language but not the content or idea of the abstract. We hope this support can help to reduce barriers, especially for applicants whose native language may not be English. To request support, please send your abstract to cap2024@oao.iau.org with the subject “Language editing support”.

Deadline: February 15 29, 2024
Abstracts will be scored on the following:
– relevance to CAP conference (purely education-oriented contributions are more suitable for the Shaw-IAU workshop on astronomy for education)
– Problem addressed
– Activities conducted
– Innovation
– Results or impact
– Three things that participants will learn from the submission
 

IMPORTANT DATES

Deadline for Abstracts and Grant submissions has been extended to February 29
