Workshop on Global challenges and the role of science, technology, and diplomacy
The the workshop, promoted by the Centre for Defense Higher Studies (CASD) and a team of ISIS@MACH ITALIA Research Infrastructure, focus on Global challenges and the role of Science Diplomacy with particular focus on Large Scale Facilities (LSFs) and Medium Range Facilities (MRFs). In this context, diplomacy continue to foster international scientific cooperation, e. g. negotiating personnel exchange programs and designing inter-governmental agreements needed for building and running LSFs and MRFs in the global landscape. On the other hand, science facilitates the establishment of constructive diplomatic relationships through academic exchange, sharing of common goals, the transfer of know-how, and the promotion of capacity-building.
Scope of the meeting was to identify common actions and projects to build up novel collaborative strategies between Medium and Large Scale Facilities. For this purpose parallel sessions (WGs), inspired by Horizon Europe Clusters, were run to identify new collaboration projects among LSFs, MRFs and academia with focus on Health; Culture, Creativity and Inclusive Society; Digital, Industry and Space (Cyber, security); Climate, Energy and Mobility; Food, Bio-economy, Natural Resources, Agriculture and Environment; Diplomacy, Management and International regulatory issues in research infrastructure including cyber security.
