Join the Global Young Academy!
The Global Young Academy is looking for new members to join us!
Applications are sought from young, independent scholars who combine the highest level of research excellence with a demonstrated passion for delivering impact.
The call is open to all scholars working in any research-based discipline, including the sciences, medicine, engineering, social sciences, the arts and humanities.
Applicants should be in the early to middle years of their independent careers. The majority of the GYA members are aged 30-40 and the typical period from completion of a PhD or similar degree is 3-10 years. Applicants falling outside these ranges are still invited to send their applications with a justification for why they should be considered.
More information on how to apply and our online application form can be found here.
Global Young Academy welcomes new members from 30 countries around the world.

The GYA is proud to introduce Open Research Europe
Open Research Europe is a new publishing platform launched by the European Commission. The platform will provide all Horizon 2020 beneficiaries and their collaborators with an easy, high quality venue to publish Horizon 2020 funded research at no cost and in full compliance with the Commission’s open access policies. The launch of the platform is planned for early 2021.
For more information about how to support this initiative and get involved, please register your interest via the platform’s webpage.
GYA connections now available!
Issue 8 explores climate change and how it can be ameliorated. Also: how social media can hold governments and political parties accountable. Most importantly, though: a warm welcome to 40 new GYA members!
