Science Summit at UNGA78 (2023)

My participation to the 2023 Science Summit in New York allowed to continue the discussion on the importance of the link between science and policy through the promotion of evidence-informed decisions at all levels of government. This 2023 edition of the Summit provided for an opportunity to discuss with relevant partners visions towards the development of the post 2030 Agenda through the science and policy nexus lens.

COST has co-organised its first onsite Science Summit event this year. Realising the “Expanding scientific frontiers via international cooperation and networking” was an exciting experience filled with inspiration and stimulating collaboration. It allowed to reinforce the cooperation with the NSF AcceINet program and opened the door for engaging with new partners interested in global research and innovation networking.

We need scientists speaking with decision-makers, industry leaders, youth, indigenous people, and other groups to co-create a sustainable, healthy and equitable future world. The Science Summit provides that space through an inclusive global platform that brings together thought leaders from diverse backgrounds to discuss urgent solutions to humanity’s most pressing issues.
