Science diplomacy is a strategy that merges scientific collaboration with diplomatic efforts to address transnational challenges, promote mutual understanding, and drive sustainable development. It enables countries to work across borders, harnessing the universal language of science to strengthen diplomatic relationships and solve global issues. In an increasingly interconnected world, science diplomacy has become a critical tool for addressing global challenges such as climate change, pandemics, energy, and food security.

Science diplomacy offers a framework for cooperation across borders, leveraging scientific knowledge and research to foster international partnerships and facilitate sustainable development. This roundtable will convene scientists, policymakers, and leaders from academia and civil society to discuss strategies, opportunities, and challenges at the intersection of science and diplomacy.
