‘The public day of the General Assembly was inspiring, and I recommend including it in the future.’

In the first event, the ISC presented the high-level findings of the COVID-19 Outcomes Scenarios Exercise that is being conducted in partnership with the UNDRR and the World Health Organization. The discussion focused on the importance of systems thinking and global cooperation to improve long-term outcomes of global emergencies, and took place in the framework of the International Day for Disaster Risk Reduction.
The second event brought together ISC Patrons Mary Robinson, Ismail Serageldin and Vint Cerf to discuss public perceptions of science, exploring how the ISC and its members could strengthen public engagement with science.
