New Guide: How Science Academies Can Support the Sustainable Development Goals

The United Nations’ 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development identified 17 Sustainable Development Goals whose realization will require expertise from many sectors, including science, engineering, and medicine.  Supporting the Sustainable Development Goals: A Guide for Merit-Based Academies, a new publication from the InterAcademy Partnership, explains why and how academies around the globe can support the Sustainable Development Goals – for example, by providing advice to governments about implementing the goals, and by monitoring and evaluating progress toward the goals.

The guide is now available on the IAP website.
