PSA is actively contributing to the success of Future Earth (FE). PSA’s efforts were instrumental in securing a dedicated session on FE at the Fiji Inter-Congress (2013), as well as a special address on FE by Nordin Hasan, Executive Director of ICSU’s Regional Office for Asia-Pacific (ICSU-ROAP) at the conference’s Opening Ceremony. Dr. Xuemei Bai, a member of the Future Earth Science Committee, also helped lead the session at the Inter-Congress. This was the first event held by Future Earth in the Pacific Islands.
PSA President Nancy Lewis regularly attends ISCU-ROAP Future Earth meetings in, or pertaining to, the Asia-Pacific, and PSA is strongly committed to promoting FE as a critical vehicle for engaging the region in global change issues.
