More than 50 (National) Young Academies and young academy initiatives from all over the world were invited to attend the first-ever online meeting of young academies on 22 September 2020, organised by the GYA.
In 2019, the Fourth Worldwide Meeting of Young Academies in Vietnam saw fruitful discussions about young academy activities and the challenges they face. Best practices for member selection and engagement, as well as for how to do science advice or set up a new young academy were also exchanged. The 2020 online meeting aimed to provide a similar space online. A meeting agenda was shared with participating academies before the meeting.
