About The Event

The AstroEdu Conference series which launched in 2019 showed that there is a need for a conference dedicated to bringing together researchers and practitioners from the astronomy, astronomy education, general education and other communities.

This third conference celebrates two decades since the publication of “Teaching and Learning Astronomy: Effective Strategies for Educators Worldwide” and in doing so looks at the rich diverse perspectives in astronomy education from across the world. This event brings together two major astronomy education conferences AstroEduCon and RTSRE to reflect on the past 10 years, and look ahead a decade.

Meet Our

Speakers

We welcome you to the creative, cultural capital of Australia, Melbourne. A multicultural metropolis, where roughly 30% of people speak another language other than English at home, Melbourne is the major city in the state of Victoria, named the “Education State” for it’s 10 universities, 2 of which are in the world top-100. Melbourne itself hides it’s true nature within 230 laneways concealing world-renowned restaurants, bars and street-art and is surrounded by numerous diverse inner-city neighbourhoods and the numerous botanical parks and gardens of Australia’s “Garden City”. You can also probably still hear us grumble about how Vienna knocked Melbourne off No. 1 of the world’s most liveable cities list in 2018 for the first time in eight years….. but as long as we are still above Sydney and Vancouver we have learnt to live with it!
