The UNESCO International Year of Astronomy was launched in 14 and 15 January 2009. The Year coincides with the 400th anniversary of Galileo's first observations with an astronomical telescope. If you missed the International Human Rights Day was celebrated on 10 December 2008, marking the 60th anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. In 2011 we have the International Year of Chemistry to look forward to.
The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) was founded on 16 November 1945. There are 193 Member States and six Associate Members.
What I learned that was special:
• Singapore was the latest member state to join UNESCO, in October 2007.
