HAIS 1, 5-6 October, 2007

The first HAIS meeting was held 5-6 October 2006 at the National Academies of Science, Washington DC, USA.

The idea with this meeting was to invite heads of national IPY secretariats for exchanging information, particularly present funding status, and to discuss issues of potential joint interest.

For practical reasons, the participants came from the northern hemisphere (hence called Arctic). However, both Polar Regions were included in the discussions.
