The 2024 meeting of the Araucaria collaboration took place at Paris Observatory, France on 2-6 September 2024.

We had lively discussions on various topics related to galactic and extragalactic distances, as well as observation opportunities from Cerro Murphy Observatory in Chile.

A big thank you to the participants for a very fruitful week !
