The IPY International Programme Office will be closing down on the 30th of September. There are plans to keep ipy.org live and active beyond this time. Until then, however, the site will be under construction as we know there have been a lot of issues with broken links and missing information. Please bear with us as we continue to fix these issues over the next several weeks. If you need any information on IPY, or have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact the IPO directly on +44 1223 22 1274 or send an email to This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.
