the constant support of the Government of Chile and the collaborative and constructive relationship that ESO has with Chilean society and the local communities near to the observatories.</p> <p>ESO has established four collaboration programmes to promote astronomy, science and education, and these are described below.</p> <p><br> In 2010, the ESO–Government of Chile Joint Committee selected the following education and public outreach projects, to be undertaken during 2011:</p> <table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="1" width="100%"> <tbody> <tr> <td width="68%"> <p><strong class="bltxt">Renovation of the historic Observatory Manuel Foster</strong></p> <p>This project aims to renovate the historic Observatory Manuel Foster and create an important centre for astronomy education and outreach. This centre will offer themed programmes for students, educators and the general public. This observatory, located atop Cerro San Cristóbal, in central Santiago de Chile, was built early in the 20th century and was donated to the Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile by one of its former students, Manuel Foster, in 1928. The observatory, which produced the first catalogues of stellar radial velocities of the southern sky, was recently declared a Historic National Monument in Chile.<br> <br> Responsible Institution: Pontificia Universidad Católica de Chile (PUC), Santiago, Metropolitan Region.<br> Contact: <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20210202214214/mailto:dorellana@ctio.noao.edu">David Orellana</a></p> </td> <td width="32%"><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20210202214214/http://www.eso.org/public/images/foster2/"><img src="/web/20210202214214im_/https://www.eso.org/public/archives/images/medium/foster2.jpg" border="0" alt="Manuel Foster Observatory" width="320" height="214"></a></td> </tr> <tr> <td> <p><strong class="bltxt">Outreach in Astronomy in the Valparaíso Region</strong></p> <p>This project includes a programme of talks, workshops and astronomical observations for school children and for the general public in the Valparaíso Region.
