AstroLatinX
AstroLatinX is a student-run organization at The Ohio State University whose mission is to educate and foster interest in astronomy by providing outreach in Spanish to Hispanic/Latin-American communities in Franklin County and adjacent areas. Our goal in using Spanish in our outreach is to and foster a sense of inclusion through communication with members of the Spanish-speaking community about a scientific field primarily written about in English. Our community outreach through Spanish planetarium shows and K-12 activities seeks to change the landscape and create a more diverse community in astronomy.
Stay tuned for a list of the outreach programs we will be scheduling for this year. If you are a group that is looking for Spanish-language outreach for K-12 or other groups to do educational programs please reach out to us and we can try to schedule an event! We are looking for partners to bring the communities together. Email us at astronomy@osu.edu and mention this is the group you are looking for and we will get your email routed to the correct people.
