Dear IAU individual and junior members,

We hope this email finds you well.  We are excited to introduce ourselves as
the new Organizing Committee of the IAU EC Working Group of Junior Members
for the Triennium 2024-2027.

We intend to organise a regular series of three discourses once every
quarter, a “researcher in spotlight” once every month and other events in
accordance with the goals of the EC WG of JMs which are as follows:

  1. Build a global network of early career researchers.
  2. Involve JMs in IAU activities.
  3. Provide a platform to share experiences and insights.
  4. Identify and address challenges faced by early career researchers.
  5. Propose solutions to improve research environments.
  6. Organize a regular international conference for early career
astronomers
     to share experiences, promote research, network with industry, and
     explore entrepreneurship.
  7. Represent JMs in IAU activities.

We would like to encourage IAU Individual Members to share this information
with any younger colleagues who may not yet be an IAU Junior Member but may
be interested in becoming one. By doing so, you’ll help raise awareness
about the IAU Junior Membership, which aims to create a collaborative
platform for early-career researchers.  Our goal is to reach as many
individuals as possible. We also encourage interested IAU Individual Members
to reach out to us at iaujuniormember en gmail.com if they would like to
contribute by delivering a talk that could be useful to the IAU Junior
Members. You are also welcome to organise/suggest events besides talks
within the IAU EC Working Group of Junior Members and we can help promote
and manage them. While we recognize this is an additional commitment, we
believe your expertise and experience would be invaluable in supporting
early-career researchers.

We encourage all IAU Junior Members to connect with us on social media for
engaging interactions and updates on upcoming events. We welcome your
suggestions on topics you'd like to see in our next discourse series.
Additionally, we invite interested IAU Junior Members to send a 1-minute
video introducing themselves (name, designation, affiliation), along with
their research interests and hobbies, to iaujuniormember en gmail.com. We’ll
share these videos on our Instagram to help build a stronger network and
encourage future membership. Lastly, we plan to organize a brainstorming
session for IAU Junior Members to connect better and understand individual
potentials and possible contributions to the Working Group.

We look forward to your participation and ideas in building a strong
community.

Best regards,
The Organizing Committee of the IAU EC Working Group of Junior Members
