ESO Science Outreach Network
The ESO education and Public Outreach Department has established a network of persons in the ESO Member Countries who serve as local contacts for the media in connection with ESO developments, Press Releases, etc.. At the same time, they may help to provide useful contacts between the media and the scientists in their area.
