Abstract
In this paper we summarise the presentations given during the "Education and Public Outreach on Gravitational-Wave Astronomy" parallel session at the GR-20/Amaldi conference, held in Warsaw, July 2013. The talks presented demonstrate the wide range of education and public outreach activities being undertaken in the field of gravitational-wave astronomy-across science festivals, science education centers, junior schools and high schools, colleges and universities, via both face-to-face delivery and (increasingly) the internet and social media.

N1 - Funding Information: Acknowledgments The session convenors Martin Hendry and Carlo Bradaschia would like to thank all of the speakers and everyone who participated in the session for making it a success. The work of NC was supported by NSF grant PHY-1204371. This program is currently supported by grant PHY-1005036 from the NSF. Funding Information: The international research experience for undergraduates (IREU) program at the University of Florida (UF) in gravitational-wave physics [17] is now in its eighth year. It is funded by US National Science Foundation (NSF), with Bernard Whiting as Director and PI and Guido Mueller as Co-PI. The focus of the program is on students from small schools with limited access to physics research resources, and students with minority status (which, in physics, especially includes women) seeking increased exposure to research. Our program is designed to expose US (and permanent resident) students to the rigors of gravitational physics research within a setting that truly reflects its international character. Students within related science communities are particularly welcome.
