Description
The Dark Energy Survey (DES) Collaboration is an international
astronomy collaboration of 400 scientists (graduate student to professor) from ~30 institutions. Our public outreach and professional development programs are unique grass-roots efforts that set new standards for large science collaborations. We describe several
programs in which scientists build networks of internal support, develop connections with local communities, and reach global audiences. We prioritize professional development, diversity and inclusivity, and normalizing science in broad social contexts.
