Following the Starlight meeting held in La Palma in November 2009, members of the IAU Working Group on Astronomy and World Heritage and the Starlight Initative are working together, with the approval of the UNESCO World Heritage Centre, to produce a new integrated web site for the UNESCO–IAU Astronomy and World Heritage Initiative that will act as a Portal to the Heritage of Astronomy. As such, the portal will be the bridge between the Initiative, the scientific community, National Commissions and experts, and the general public.
