In a world facing complex global challenges, scientific knowledge increasingly emerges through networks rather than isolated actors. This TWAS-IAP-OWSD session examines how international scientific networks —including academies, researchers from the global South and women scientists— serve as channels of science diplomacy. The event explores how networks shape scientific and policy discourse, build trust, and foster South–South cooperation through long standing relationships, inclusive dialogue and collective intelligence.
