Blazars, the most extreme active galactic nuclei with powerful
relativistic jets extending out to kiloparsecs from their central
engine, are among the most intriguing and consistently bright
objects in the observable Universe. Understanding how they form and
shine has been a cumbersome endeavor since their discovery in the
1960s, with several fundamental questions remaining open to this
day. The 2020s mark the beginning of a new era of large-scale
surveys, multimessenger astrophysics, high-energy polarization, and
extreme angular resolution, setting the ideal stage to study
astrophysical jets. IAU Symposium 375 was the first IAU symposium
to take place in Nepal. It brought together experts from all
aspects of the blazar community to facilitate the building of new
collaborative efforts to take advantage of the wealth of incoming
data that will help provide answers to long-standing questions. It
also supported local efforts to promote astrophysics and
astrophysical research in Nepal.
