ICTP has recently passed an important milestone: its 45th anniversary. With its new leadership and in light of rapid economic and technological developments taking place worldwide, ICTP is hosting a high-level gathering of top scientists and policy makers to discuss the implications of global change on science and education in the developing world.
The event is titled ICTP After 45: Science and Development for a Changing World, and will take place from 8 to 10 November 2010.
Nobel Prize winners, government ministers, and leaders of development agencies from developed and developing countries, will join in an international dialogue that could determine new, effective strategies for scientific research and education.
