In 2013 I was invited, as the Italian point of contact in the European “Loss of the Night” research network (LoNNe) with BuioMetria Partecipativa, to the first night sky monitoring campaign for this project. This was in the island of Lastovo, Croatia.

This experience spawned the proposal to repeat the monitoring campaign the the Farma Valley, Southern Tuscany (with activities in Torniella, Belagaio, and Sesto Fiorentino) in 2015 (see https://www.pibinko.org/official-report-on-the-lonne-intercomparison-campaign-in-tuscany/)
