Affiliated Societies

Affiliated Societies of the RASNZ

Astronomical Societies affiliated to the RASNZ have representation on the RASNZ Council through the Affiliated Society Representatives (see below). Societies have access to travel assistance for bringing guest speakers to their meetings through the Gifford-Eiby Memorial Lectureship Fund. See the list of speakers for people who have offered to come and talk to your society or can lead various sorts of workshops.

Societies also benefit through receipt of a copy of Southern Stars and contact with other astronomical societies through notices of activities and events sent out by the Affiliated Society Representatives from time to time.

Keeping in Touch newsletters are sent out to Affiliated Societies to spread the word about items that may be of interest to Societies and their members. Back issues of Keeping in Touch PDFs may be downloaded from the Affiliated Society Files page. Other files of interest to Societies may also be found there.

Affiliated Society Representatives

The RASNZ Affiliated Society representatives provide liaison between the various affiliated societies and the RASNZ council. From time to time we email notices to the societies. If you have an event coming up, want to share knowledge or equipment, or have anything you'd like to let the other societies or council know about please send us an email: Affiliated Societies Representatives.
