International Year of Sound 2020-2021

About the Year of Sound

The Year of Sound is an international celebration of sound and how it enters our lives in so many ways.

IYS 2020 Structure

The membership of the International Commission for Acoustics (ICA) includes all the major national acoustical societies around the world plus international affiliate organisations which themselves have extensive membership. Thus the ICA is well placed to coordinate central events plus mobilise the extensive membership to organize national events relevant to the particular regions and contributing to the intent of the UNESCO resolution.

The International Year of Sound is working closely with La Semaine du Son with the goal to expand the opportunities for the activities of La Semaine du Son (Week of Sound) following coordination with more national organisations and will provide the opportunity for the expansion and continuation into the coming decades.
