This is a poster presented at the 6th Shaw-IAU Workshop on Astronomy for Education, organised by the IAU Office of Astronomy for Education (OAE, http//astro4edu.org). Title: Cultural Astronomy: Transformative Potential in Basic Education Presenter:Chiosini, Enrico Cultural Astronomy examines how different cultures interpret and integrate celestial knowledge into their social systems, revealing a rich diversity that is often overlooked in traditional education. By analyzing the relationship between education and culture and considering legal measures that promote multicultural education, we explore the challenges of assimilationist and differentialist perspectives. This research underscores the transformative potential of Cultural Astronomy in basic education, encouraging deeper cultural awareness, critical thinking, and a more inclusive understanding of science, enriching students' worldviews and preparing them for life in a multicultural society. About the 6th Shaw-IAU Workshop:The 6th Shaw-IAU Workshop took place:12 - 15 November 2024. The Shaw-IAU workshops focus on astronomy education for primary and secondary school students and teacher training both in universities and in service. This year's workshop featured two special topics: an exploration of the first two years of the James Webb Space Telescope for the scientific topic, and the crucial aspect of evaluation in educational contexts as the non-scientific topic.More details can be found on: https://astro4edu.org/shaw-iau/Keep up to date with future Shaw-IAU Workshops and other opportunities at the IAU Office of Astronomy for Education by joining our mailing list https://astro4edu.org/mailing-list/Follow the IAU OAE on Bluesky and Facebook under @astro4edu
