Dear All,

As many of you know, ICTP and three other scientific institutes in 
Trieste (TWAS, ICGEB and IAP) are set to host a major United Nations 
conference next week that will attract leading scientific experts who 
have been tasked to provide advice to UN Secretary-General Ban Ki Moon.

The 26 leading scientists of the UN Secretary-General's Scientific 
Advisory Board (UNSAB) will meet at ICTP on 24 and 25 May to provide 
insights and recommendations on the crucial role of science in achieving 
the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) that were adopted by the United 
Nations in the late 2015.

occassion a resounding success.

With thanks and kind regards,
