In accordance with the United Nations Environment Assembly (UNEA) Resolution 5/3 entitled “Future of the Global Environment Outlook” the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) has initiated the preparation of the seventh edition of the Global Environment Outlook (GEO-7) assessment and its accompanying Summary for Policymakers to be launched at UNEA-7. The scope and annotated outline of GEO-7 were adopted by Members States, stakeholders and experts in October 2022.
In the frame of the GEO-7, UNEP is seeking nominations of experts to act as authors, review editors or fellows – with a broad range of expertise ranging from natural sciences to policy, economics and social sciences, as well as expertise in outlooks and scenarios – to work closely with the co-chairs of the assessment and the GEO Secretariat to ensure a solutions-focused, policy relevant and scientifically credible GEO-7 is produced by 2026.
For further information on the terms of references for each position and requirements, please read the nomination letter.
👉 If you are interested to be nominated by the International Science Council to become a GEO-7 author, review-editor or fellow, please complete the online form below by 5 January 2023.

Please consider sharing this call widely with your members and wider networks and encourage nominations of relevant experts.
