G-Science Academies meetings
The annual G-Science Academies’ meetings started in 2005 and have become a major platform through which the Society collaborates with other leading science academies. The academies discuss and produce statements on global challenges in order to inform and influence public policies and debate.
Participation at the Science7 meetings has varied over the years, and usually includes the academies of the G7 nations (USA, UK, Canada, France, Germany, Italy and Japan), and occasionally some other nations. Science20 meetings usually additionally include representation from the academies of Argentina, Australia, Brazil, China, India, Indonesia Mexico, Russia, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, South Korea, Turkey, and representatives from the European Union and the African Union.
