Regional Focal Point for Asia and the Pacific

Scroll down
Based at the Australian Academy of Science, the regional focal point convenes the scientific community in Asia-Pacific and acts as a hub for ISC Members and activities in the region.

Background

The Regional Focal Point began its operations in 2023, and is working to ensure that regional needs and priorities are adequately represented in the ISC’s global agenda, that regional voices are actively engaged in the governance and management of the ISC’s work, and that the region benefits from the results of that work.
