The year 2009 will be memorable for all involved or touched by the International Year of Astronomy 2009 (IYA2009): astronomers _ hobbyists as well as professionals, space enthusiasts, educators, teachers, journalists, students and hopefully the society at large . As a global celebration of astronomy, the IYA2009 fosters a global appreciation of the role and value of science, technology and astronomy as a unifying activity for humanity. The IYA2009 has been promoting astronomy and its contribution to society and culture. The response from all the corners of the world echoes an extremely positive, unique and very successful endeavour. How to maintain this momentum of projects and activities? This is a central question that needs to be address in this new project stage: the aftermath of IYA2009.
This presentation outlines the coordination efforts before and during 2009, the preliminary results of IYA2009 global projects and activities, as well as the first steps for a sustained legacy of IYA2009.
