Young Scientists – “Inside Cosmos”

This project was designed according to the ‘International Year of Astronomy 2009’ (www.astronomy2009.org); a science project for young scientists in Europe and Asia. The objective of the Astronomy and World Heritage thematic initiative is to establish a link between science and culture on the basis of research aimed at acknowledging the cultural and scientific values of properties connected with astronomy. The identification, safeguarding and promotion of these properties are the three lines of actions for the implementation of this programme. Its goals were: (a) to offer a methodological framework for associated actions; (b) to open the pathway for co-operation between States Parties and academic communities; and (c) to share knowledge.
