The INGSA Conferences
In 2014, the then-International Council for Science (ICSU) and New Zealand’s Chief Science Advisor, Professor Sir Peter Gluckman, jointly convened the landmark Science Advice to Government conference in Auckland. This was first major global summit of leading practitioners of high-level science advice to governments. The result was the foundation of INGSA.
INGSA’s international conferences are flagship events, providing practitioners and thought-leaders from all countries and all systems to share best practice, form international connections, and help set the standards and aspirations for the field. Explore the past conferences to find cutting-edge content on science advice and science diplomacy.
