In Collaboration with :-

I.U.C.A.A.  Inter University Centre for Astronomy and Astrophysics has been chosen as the single point of contact for the Indian activities related to the International Year of Astronomy.

Amateur Astronomers Association, Delhi   We, at the Nehru Planetarium New Delhi, would not be able to conduct all our educational activities, if it were not for the enthusiasm of the members of the Amateur Astronomers Association, Delhi.

S.P.A.C.E.  The NGO Science Popularisation Association of Communicators and Educators is doing very interesting work with introducing hands on curriculum, related to Astronomy, in schools. We have worked together with them for many events in the past and would surely be working together with them for many of the IYA 2009 activities :-)
