One in three researchers have no access to #quantum research facilities, depriving society of its full potential unes.co/h4u9je Read our latest #UNESCO global #report : unesdoc.unesco.org/ark:/48223/pf0…

#Science_Clubs are key to building future #STEM talent. #UNESCO is strengthening the #Science_Clubs_Network_Asia_Pacific and launching the #Science_Club_Challenge_2026 to connect, showcase, and scale impact across the region. unesco.org/en/articles/ca… #ScienceClubs #IDSSSD

Global challenges are accelerating.
Science must deliver, faster, better, together. The #ScienceDecade is mobilizing action. Join us at the #IDSSD Global Conference (July 2026, @UNESCO): unesco.org/en/articles/20…

Bridging the global lab gap: Yesterday we launched a new training under #UNESCO’s #UNESRALE initiative, enabling researchers from #Africa & #Ukraine to access advanced equipment remotely and build skills in cutting-edge life sciences. With #Université_Paris_Cité & #CNRS

How can mathematics inspire hope? Mathematics helps us understand the world, navigate uncertainty and build shared solutions for a more sustainable future. Through data, reasoning and collaboration, it strengthens trust in knowledge and supports innovation for the common good. To mark the International Day of Mathematics 2026, @UNESCO, the International Mathematical Union and IMAGINARY brought together mathematicians and thinkers from around the world for a global webinar on “Mathematics and hope.” In a message shared for the occasion, @Pontifex reminded participants that knowledge alone is not enough if we lose sight of our humanity, encouraging mathematicians to help shape a more hopeful future. unesco.org/en/articles/in… #MathematicsDay

UNESCO advances equitable access to quantum science for African women scientists unes.co/mdeu9o

The #quantum_future must belong to everyone. #UNESCO is empowering African women scientists to enter quantum technologies. A step toward closing the global #QuantumDivide through the Global Quantum Initiative (#GQI). #QuantumForAll #WomenInSTEM #Africa unes.co/mdeu9o

Opportunities alert! #UNESCO & Equatorial Guinea are inviting applications for: - 2026 Intl Prize for Research in Life Sciences - Fellowship for Young Women Scientists in Africa Prize: unesco.org/en/articles/20… Fellowship: unesco.org/en/articles/20…

In Accra, the #IYQ ended with a clear message: #quantum is not just a scientific frontier. It is a responsibility. It must be shared. That’s why we launched the #Global_Quantum_Initiative (#GQI), a platform to turn momentum into inclusion and cooperation. More to come soon….

An inspiring week at #WEF26 #Davos 
From #trust_in_science and #open & equitable science, to science governance, #IDSSD, and #quantum futures — science was at the heart of the dialogue. #UNESCO #Frontiers @IDSSD @IYQ2025

Grateful to @FrontiersIn for the partnership at #FrontiersScienceHouse during #WEF26. I’ll share how #IYQ2025 is helping turn quantum advances into equitable & sustainable impact. 📅 22 Jan | #Davos2026 🔗 sciencehouse.frontiersin.org/event/945d08cf…

As the #IYQ2025 concludes, our article: nature.com/articles/s4428… highlights how capacity building, and national strategies can make the #quantum future truly global. Grateful to the Chief Editor Rachel Won for this collaboration, and looking forward to the IYQ closing in Ghana.

Honoured to join Doreen Bogdan-Martin (SG @ITU), Fabiola Gianotti (DG @CERN) at #GESDA2025 for a panel on #quantum tech & global cooperation. Shared #UNESCO’s view & ongoing consultations on the Global Quantum Initiative (#GQI) under the #IDSSD (2024–2033).

The UNESCO-Carlos J. Finlay Prize for Microbiology 2025 is now open for nominations! Honouring work at the frontier of microbiology, immunology, molecular biology, genetics, this is your chance to spotlight excellence in microbial science. unes.co/i0uh12

From 2 global calls with 400+ proposals, to new partnerships & growing global networks; the #IDSSD is in full motion! 108 initiatives endorsed across 50+ countries, 244 new proposals under review, Partnerships expanding, youth & women engaged Learn more: un-sciences-decade.org/en

#UNESCO shares a new informational toolkit on how #synchrotron science could support #Africa’s priorities in health, agriculture, clean energy & heritage. It presents options, including pooled access at #SESAME, and invites dialogue. Read here: unesdoc.unesco.org/ark:/48223/pf0…

Instead of flowers for her retirement, Prof. Petra Rudolf asked colleagues to support #UNESCO’s initiative for #remote_access_to_scientific_equipment in under-resourced regions. Be part of the impact: unesco.org/en/basic-scien… More on her inspiring story: unesco.org/en/articles/li…

Grateful to join the International Training Workshop on #SpaceScience & Utilization in Hong Kong. Wonderful exchange with scientists & engineers from around the world. Honoured to introduce the #IDSSD & explore synergies for inclusive space science collaboration. #UNESCO #IDSSD
