They address audiences

Lecturers are people who give lectures, typically in academic settings.

In American English, a lecturer is usually a lower-ranking instructor at a college or university, often without tenure or a permanent position.

In British English, lecturer is a more general academic title roughly equivalent to an American assistant professor.
