IAP Triennial Conference and General Assembly and WWMYA, 1-3 November

The Triennial Conference of the InterAcademy Partnership (IAP) and the Worldwide Meeting of Young Academies will take place from November 1 to 3, 2022, both online and at the University of Arizona’s Biosphere 2, USA.

The InterAcademy Partnership (IAP) includes more than 140 national, regional, and global member academies who work together to support the vital role of science in seeking evidence-based solutions to the world’s most challenging problems. The Worldwide Meeting of Young Academies gathers early-career scientists, engineers, and medical professionals from more than 50 young academies around the world. This year marks the first time that the two groups are holding their meetings jointly.

The hybrid conference will explore the theme “Inclusive Excellence: Harnessing Knowledge for Sustainable Societies.”  The concept of inclusive excellence recognizes that the well-being of communities, particularly when facing major challenges, depends on valuing and engaging the rich diversity of all community members. Guided by that theme, the conference will gather delegates from over 100 countries to consider how research can address global challenges, how current research structures and processes exclude valuable voices and knowledge systems, and how to make these structures and processes more equitable and sustainable. Please find attached the  conference programme.

The conference sessions are open to all. Should you be interested in joining, please identify the sessions of your interest, then follow the link to the registration page:https://nasem.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_2T_qNKgtTdWb794BHxtxgA
