Extractions: Archive NERC's International Strategy Group Home Page The International Strategy Group's purpose is to add value to NERC's collaboration and partnership with international science, by: adding an international dimension to NERC policy and planning; influencing overseas fora and programmes; enabling exploitation of overseas opportunities (by the UK environmental sciences community). Within the UK this involves close collaboration with (amongst others): Research Councils UK (RCUK) NERC Research and Collaborative Centres Department for the Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (DEFRA) OST International Directorate. The Group's interaction overseas is mainly with: UK Research Council's Research Office in Brussels (UKRO) European Commission's Research Directorate European Science Foundation (ESF) NERC is a member organisation of the ESF COST (Co-operation in European Science and Technology International Project Offices

Next Chapter INTERNATIONAL METEOROLOGICAL ACTIVITIES WMO Contribution Multilateral Activities Meeting Australia's international obligations Bilateral Activities OBJECTIVE To meet Australia's international obligations, advance Australia's interests and support the operations and services of the Bureau through participation in international meteorology. OUTPUT Effective Australian participation in the various constituent bodies, programs and activities of the World Meteorological Organization including the provision of data, products and services to overseas National Meteorological Services and overseas user communities; along with participation in the international meteorological and related programs of other international organisations; and bilateral cooperation with other advanced countries and bilateral cooperation with, and assistance to, developing country National Meteorological Services in the South West Pacific. OUTCOME International cooperation and goodwill including the benefits of global meteorological cooperation under the Convention of the World Meteorological Organization and related international meteorological treaties and agreements. Meteorology is one of the most inherently international of all fields of science and human endeavour and international cooperation plays a vital role in the operation of the Bureau, enabling it to draw on, and benefit from, scientific, technological and operational developments and expertise in other countries while contributing, within its own capability, to the effectiveness of the total international effort from which all countries benefit. This helps to ensure that the Australian community receives the best services possible within the limitations of available resources and the international state of the art in meteorological science and technology.

AAS-International Space Submission The Academy promotes scientific activities between Australian and international Space science is important to international collaboration and thereby http://www.science.org.au/reports/spacesub.htm
Extractions: September 1995 Summary Australia has considerable achievements in space science and technology. But the country's space program is too small to be useful or sustainable. Without a great increase in funding (to a level still below some Asian countries), it will not produce worthwhile results. The Commonwealth Government funds the National Space Program in order to build high-technology industries in Australia. Space science is the starting point for both a space program and space-related industries both depend on the research, the techniques and the inventions of scientists. Australia's space program needs to place more emphasis on space science in order to gain industrial benefits. The Academy recommends: The Australian Government provide at least $20 million per year for the development of a useful and sustainable National Space Program, as recommended in the expert panel report. The capability for payload and satellite manufacture should have a higher priority than launch capability.
