The ISC has Members and partners across the world, and is active in all regions.
In order to deepen the Council’s engagement with its Members and with individual scientists across the world, the ISC has established a number of Regional Focal Points who will help build capacity of science systems and the global voice for science in the regions.
- The Regional Focal Point for Latin America and the Caribbean hosted by the Academia Colombiana de Ciencias Exactas, Fisicas y Naturales was launched in 2021.
- The Asia and the Pacific region is covered by a Regional Focal Point hosted by the Australian Academy of Science and was launched in 2022.
- The dialogue to establish a presence in Africa started in 2022 with the ISC’s partners, Future Africa, a pan-African organization based based in South Africa, who will explore possibilties and make recommendations to the Council at the next General Assembly.
