Steering Committee holds its first meeting in Canada |
The first meeting of the IANAS Steering Committee was held in Ottawa, on November 5 th of 2004. Held at the headquarters of the Royal Society of Canada, the meeting discussed the actions of IANAS since its inaugural meeting in Santiago and the significant progress that has been achieved since then. Communication policy, the functioning of the secretariat, funding of the network and the agenda for the coming year were also major topics for debate.
The general feeling was that although organizations usually take a long time to mature and become recognized, IANAS is moving fast to become an important reference in S&T in the Americas. For more details, view the report.
