Dear ISWI Participant:

There are two superlative items today.

[1] Please find attached the first announcement for this meeting:
"Expert Meeting on Improving Space Weather Forecasting in the Next Decade"
To be held in conjunction with the 51st session of the Scientific and Technical Subcommittee of the Committee on the Peaceful Uses of Outer Space (COPUOS)

Dates: 10-11 February 2014, Co-incident with the first two days of the Scientific and Technical Subcommittee (STSC) of the Committee on the Peaceful Uses of Outer Space (COPUOS)

Location: The United Nations, Vienna International Center, Vienna, Austria (Room number to be announced later.)

[2] Recently, in the city of Abidjan in the country of Cote d'Ivoire (Ivory Coast), an immensely exciting outreach event took place. Please kindly take a look at my 14-page illustrated report on this event. It is attached as the second pdf.

The intent of this report is to inspire more of the ISWI community to make "an outreach" to young teen-agers all of the world. Many of them need your attention, your inspiration, your guidance, your concern, and your care, to make wise choices on how to proceed in Life. Show them the beauty, and the magic, of the natural sciences. When done well, their eyes light up. This time, in Abidjan, it was done very well.

Cordially yours,
George Maeda
Editor of ISWI Newsletter
