Join us celebrating "Under one Sky"
Don't miss this funding opportunity to disseminate astronomy in your local
community while joining the global IAU 100 years celebrations.

Dear friends and colleagues,

In 2019, the International Astronomical Union (IAU) will celebrate its
100th anniversary (IAU100). To commemorate this milestone, the IAU will
organise a year-long celebration to increase awareness of a century of
astronomical discoveries as well as to support and improve the use of
astronomy as a tool for education, development and diplomacy.

The IAU is issuing a call for proposals
<https://iau.us11.list-manage.com/track/click?u=0ecb46e29196a0f367daf3dd6&id=7a2187f487&e=ae6ccb573e>
for Special Projects in support of *IAU100 Goals at local and national
levels*. An IAU100 Special Project is an astronomy-oriented
activity implemented at a local or national level that will support the
IAU100 Goals under one or more of the IAU100 Flagship Programmes
<https://iau.us11.list-manage.com/track/click?u=0ecb46e29196a0f367daf3dd6&id=57a45b7c7c&e=ae6ccb573e>.
The IAU100 Task Force will provide seed money support up to 2500 EUR for
the IAU100 Special Projects. *The deadline for application is June 15,
2018.*

Our team is looking forward to embarking on this new adventure with you! If
you have any queries, you can reach us at outreach at iau.org.

Clear Skies!
The IAU Office for Astronomy Outreach team
