>International Lunar Exploration Working Group (ILEWG)
>What is ILEWG?
>
>The International Lunar Exploration Working Group (ILEWG) is a public forum
>sponsored by the world's space agencies to support "international 
>cooperation
>towards a world strategy for the exploration and utilization of the Moon
>- our natural satellite" (International Lunar Workshop, Beatenberg (CH), 
>June 1994).
>
>The Forum is intended to serve three relevant groups:
>    1. actual members of the ILEWG, ie delegates and representatives of the
>participating Space Agencies and organizations - allowing them to discuss
>and possibly harmonize their draft concepts and plans in the spirit of the
>Beatenberg Declaration
>
>    2. team members of the relevant space projects - allowing them to 
>coordinate
>their internal work according to the guidelines provided by the Charter of 
>the ILEWG
>
>    3. members of the general public and of the Lunar Explorer's Society 
>who are
>interested and wish to be informed on the progress of the Moon projects and
>possibly contribute their own ideas
>
>The ILEWG Forum also hosts the Lunar Explorer's Society.

>Working for a permanent presence of humanity on the Moon
>The Lunar Explorers Society is an international space advocacy
>organization that aims to promote the exploration of the Moon
>for the benefit of humanity. We believe that the Moon is the
>next and most important step in the human exploration of the
>solar system. We are dedicated to help achieve this goal
>through furthering international cooperation, outreach
>activities and general enlightening of the public. In pursuing
>this aim we hope to bring the best of humanity to the Moon,
>and to bring the benefits of the Moon to all people on Earth
>through a sustainable exploration process.
