Indian Space Research Organisation is hosting the 24th Session of the Asia-Pacific Regional Space Agency Forum (APRSAF-24) at Bangalore during November 2017. On this occasion, a Poster Contest for children from participating Asia-Pacific countries is being organised as part of APRSAF-24.

The objective of this Poster Contest is to enhance children’s interest in and awareness of space science and technology and to encourage them to expand their imagination about the universe.

For selecting three best posters from India for this competition, students from our country are invited to submit their posters. The poster submission should be through their respective schools.
