Advice regarding international scientific meetings & visas
The free and responsible practice of science also necessitates freedom of movement and of association. Accordingly, international scientific meetings arranged or sponsored by ICSU itself or the ICSU Membership must be free from discrimination in attendance. This implies rights and responsibilities on the part of both organisers of and participants at such international scientific meetings.
The ICSU Committee on Freedom and Responsibility in the conduct of Science (CFRS) proposes recommendations to help avoid difficulties and improve the chances of a positive resolution where problems do occur.
