What are some outreach programs that promote dark skies awareness and how can we get involved in them?
The Hellenic Astronomical Society joining the international effort of the IAU Cornerstone Project “Dark Skies Awareness” has dedicated a national action in dark sky and environmental education, informing the citizens and authorities, through a relevant leaflet and organizing a national photographic contest for students, amateur and professional photographers.
More information can be found on the Hellenic Astronomical Society website.
