The principal mechanism for coordinating scientific activities for IHY is that of Coordinated Investigation Programs - CIPs. In keeping with the bottom-up approach of IHY as a whole this is an open mechanism by which researchers can propose activities that require, or would benefit from, coordinated use of facilities, whether space-based or ground-based instruments, observatories, models or other supporting research activities.

• How CIPs Work - a short description.
• CIP Coordination - details of the coordinators for the various disciplines and more information about their role.
