OECD OECD Global Science Forum Presentation by Frdric

OECD OECD Global Science Forum Presentation by Frédéric Sgard, Secretariat of the Global Science Forum OECD

Thirty-four member countries Three observer countries (China, Russia, South Africa)

Through the Global Science Forum, senior government officials develop findings and action recommendations on high-priority science policy issues. GSF is a general-purpose committee, dealing with a wide range of subjects: Policy issues where international consultations are needed, e. g. , strategic planning of infrastructures Issues at the intersection of science and society, e. g. , preventing misconduct in research Specific scientific domains where something new, noteworthy is happening, e. g. , astroparticle physics

How the Global Science Forum Works A The Global Science Forum meets two times each year. Specific activities are proposed by delegations. B Approved subsidiary activities (working groups, workshops) usually involve funding agency officials, laboratory administrators, representatives of scientific organisations, invited experts. C All subsidiary activities result in a publicly-available policy-level report containing findings and recommendations.
