In partnership with the Network of African Science Academies (NASAC) the InterAcademy Partnership (IAP) is organising a workshop on the UN SDGs. It will identify targeted, locally relevant ways in which the academies can support the implementation of the SDGs, building on their own national and regional capacity. The workshop will engage all interested members of NASAC, together with Global Young Academy and National Young Academy members in the region, and national and regional policymakers. The workshop is the fourth of four regional workshops under the IAP project âImproving scientific input to global policymakingâ.
The primary objective of the workshop is to help science academies build capacity and understanding of the science-policy interface at national, regional and global levels, using the SDGs as a framework.
