Image Description

This report was jointly published by the Australian Academy of Science and Australian Academy of Technological Sciences and Engineering.

It aimed to explore views about international cooperation in science, technology and engineering involving both public and private sector research, to assess the most useful roles for the Academies and to assist the Academies to provide advice to the Government.

The Academies believe that Government policy must recognise the importance of international collaboration for science, engineering and technology in Australia and for building international cultural links and support activities.
