Welcome

The ICSU Regional Office for Latin America & the Caribbean (ICSU ROLAC) is a regional arm of a global organisation, which is reflected in this ICSU ROLAC website being part of the ICSU global website. This ROLAC website is a tool to connect the wider ICSU scientific community to scientists, policy makers, and the public in Latin America and the Caribbean. Our aim is to promote the three pillars of ICSU at the regional level: International Research Collaboration, Science for Policy and Universality of Science.
