STARS4ALL (http://www.stars4all.eu/) aims at representing this right of “stars for all the citizens”. Our objective is to encourage citizens to care and preserve the darkness of european skies beyond 2015, the International Year of the Light.



Actions and Events
STARS4ALL will be open to everyone to stay updated, get active in initiatives and games and to create initiatives with own ideas. STARS4ALL will develop a lighting quality lable, collect ideas for more advanced lighting guidelines and support the development of sustainable lighting concepts. Quality lables will help to maximize the social and economic benefits of artificial light at night, while minimizing its negative and unintended environmental and health impacts by awarding institutions for their activities to protect natural nightscapes and the night sky.

Citizen sensing and gamification
STARS4ALL will develop and create games for citizen actions for different environments. Measure light pollution with a mobile photosensor! Your action will be fun and your data usable for science and citizen actions worldwide. Measure light pollution with a mobile photosensor.
