The vision of the GYA is science for all; science for the future, and its mission is to give a voice to young scientists and researchers around the world. The GYA, founded in 2010, is an independent science academy of 200 outstanding early- to mid-career researchers from six continents who are selected from across disciplines based on their academic excellence and commitment to engage with society. GYA members serve five-year terms, and the GYA presently counts members and alumni from 101 countries. The GYA administrative Office is publicly funded and hosted at the German National Academy of Sciences Leopoldina. The wide array of GYA activities are supported by a range of international public and private funders.

The GYA is a longstanding #OpenScience proponent and is proud to have contributed to this UN Scientific Advisory Board Statement!
🌍 Open Science for Global Challenges 🔬 The UN Secretary-General’s UN Scientific Advisory Board (SAB) held its annual retreat last week at UN Headquarters in New York, joined by UNU Rector Tshilidzi Marwala チリツィ マルワラ [丸笑], David Passarelli, Adam Day, and Madeleine Hamel, from UNU-CPR — an important opportunity to strengthen how science informs global decision-making. At the retreat, SAB members finalized and published a consolidated Statement on Open Science, highlighting its ability to strengthen research, accelerate solutions to global challenges, foster international cooperation, and uphold the human right to benefit from science. Open Science is a global public good, vital to effective decision-making, sustainable development, and revitalizing multilateralism. The members also discussed priorities for the year ahead, including frontier AI, biotechnology, and ecosystem resilience, and reinforced engagement with UN leadership at the country level. So far this year, the SAB has produced seven science policy briefs, developed in partnership with UNU-CPR, to provide UN leaders with cutting-edge insights on emerging scientific issues. Together, these efforts mark an important step toward ensuring the UN is equipped with the science and evidence it needs to navigate the opportunities and challenges of the future. 📄 Read the Statement on Open Science: https://lnkd.in/gTiERkmz Read the SAB science policy briefs: https://lnkd.in/g3YJ_U4R

📢 Securing Europe’s research future: call for a researcher-centred Framework Programme (FP10)! In response to the European Commission’s formal Multiannual Financial Framework (MFF) proposal, as well as to emerging elements of the forthcoming FP10, we at the MCAA have published a policy statement summarising our feedback and recommendations to ensure FP10 delivers on its ambition and empowers the research and innovation (R&I) community. Building on our role as the voice of the Marie Skłodowska-Curie Actions (MSCA) fellows and alumni worldwide, we call for a robust and researcher-centred FP10, one that will keep Europe’s R&I landscape strong, open, and inclusive. ➡️ Safeguard FP10’s autonomy and excellence by maintaining its independence, preserving bottom-up funding, and protecting the European Research Council (ERC) and the MSCA governance. ➡️ Ensure sufficient investment in the MSCA by allocating €25 billion to meet demand, adjust for inflation, and support Europe’s growing research workforce. ➡️ Strengthen researcher careers and mobility through full implementation of the European Charter for Researchers and measures to address precarity. ➡️ Foster an inclusive European Research Area by reinforcing widening measures, supporting transition countries, and tackling brain drain. ➡️ Promote openness and responsible international cooperation, with proportional research security and sustained investment in Open Science and diamond open access. 🔗 Read the full statement here: https://lnkd.in/eD2E9ac7 Irene Castellano Pellicena | Gian Maria Greco | Mostafa Moonir Shawrav | Tereza Szybisty (Šímová) #MSCA #FP10 #MMF #ERA

🌍 Bringing Science to the Heart of the UN 🔬 The Secretary-General António Guterres joined his Scientific Advisory Board and representatives from its network institutions for their annual retreat at UN Headquarters. Over two days, they agreed on language for a public Statement on Open Science, debated scientific briefing topics for the coming year, including frontier AI, biotechnology, and ecosystems, and set out a plan to connect their work with the UN leadership at the country level. There was also an event co-hosted by the Permanent Missions of Singapore and South Africa, on “Shaping a Strong Multilateral Future: Combatting Misinformation through Science and Technology” - that strengthened connections between scientists and the diplomatic community in New York.
