DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Areg Mickaelian (Byurakan Astrophysical Observatory)
 \nThe importance of Astronomy grows up with new discoveries related not on
 ly to Astronomy itself\, but also Physics\, Chemistry\, Biology\, Geology 
 and many other natural sciences\, as well as Computer Science. Astronomy b
 ecomes a science providing Big Data from the Universe to enrich our knowle
 dge in many fields. Many interdisciplinary sciences have appeared and deve
 loped based and/or related to Astronomy: Astrophysics (since the end of th
 e XIX century\, one of the first ever Interdisciplinary Sciences)\, Astroc
 hemistry\, Astrobiology (or Bioastronomy)\, Planetary Science (“Astrogeo
 logy”)\, Astroinformatics\, Archaeoastronomy\, etc. Each interdisciplina
 ry science will be presented and discussed in short. In addition\, Astrono
 my is always present in multidisciplinary fields\, such as the Search for 
 Extraterrestrial Intelligence (SETI)\, Big Data\, Data Science\, Space Sci
 ences and Technologies\, etc.\, as well as transdisciplinary approach in s
 cience. Among the IAU Divisions coordinating the Astronomy by areas\, one 
 half have pure astronomical/astrophysical subjects and another half have i
 nterdisciplinary nature (ex. Division B: Facilities\, Technologies and Dat
 a Science\, Division D: High Energy Phenomena and Fundamental Physics\, Di
 vision F: Planetary Systems and Astrobiology). IAU Strategic Plans 2011-20
 20 and then 2021-2030 also have a special emphasis on Astronomy for the de
 velopment of interdisciplinary sciences and this is one of the main goals 
 for the IAU Regional Offices of Astronomy for Development (ROADs). Armenia
  hosts one of the ROADs (South West and Central Asia\, SWCA) and is heavil
 y involved in interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary activities as well. 
 Collaboration between two ROADs\, SWCA and South East Asia (SEA)\, in this
  area may be rather efficient.\n\nhttps://indico.narit.or.th/event/238/con
