Abstract

RADIIO (Radio Astronomy for Development, Intercultural Innovation, and Outreach) is an international educational project launched in March 2025, connecting schools in Greece, Pakistan and China through radio astronomy. It aims to create a modern "Silk Road" for knowledge, promoting peace, innovation, and cooperation through science. It includes webinars, data analysis, participation in the citizen science project Radio Galaxy Zoo EMU, and radio telescope construction. Participants will present their results at an international online workshop, helping to reduce stereotypes. It is funded by the Astronomy for Development Office of the International Astronomical Union.
