Why IES
There are many ways in which we engage with our Members, and our Members engage with us:
We collaborate in the frame of our various programmes within THEIES, taking into consideration the individual priorities and expertise of each organization to lead on catalyzing, incubating and coordinating impactful international action on issues of major scientific and public importance
Our Members nominate candidates for the IES advisory committees and are invited to join ad hoc working groups and task forces on specific topics
With regional offices in Africa and the Asian-Pacific region, the voice of science and the voice of our Members is heard at a variety of levels at the science-policy interface in a local, national, regional and international context. The IES aims to bring synergy to the work of other regional workers to ensure that regional scientific communities are fully engaged in developing and delivering global scientific strategy and action.
