Advise for participating in international astronomy research completitions
I have been searching for International/European and/or American astronomy and astrophysical research competitions for the past 5 months or so. I would like to present my research works on variable stars (eclipsing binaries and CVs) and other areas that interest me, such as Active Galactic Nuclei variability . If anyone can recommend any research competitions where I can present my work and possibly win awards, I would be grateful. I would prefer to visit these competitions online, but I am also open to attending in-person events depending on their location. I have already participated in the IAAC Olympiades, but it's not exactly what I am looking for. I am specifically looking for a high school competitions to present my research work. Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Thank you for these recommendations. I will definitely look into those opportunities. Is there any way to find something similar but for Europe?

Each country that participates with ESA has their own specialties so you may want to see which countries study such things.
Reaching out to their Human Resources department may get you some information.
