Science and Technology in Society (STS) forum

Dr Monty Jones participated to the Fourth Annual Meeting of the Science and Technology in Society (STS) forum which was held October 7 - 9 , 2007, in the Kyoto International Conference Center (ICC Kyoto), Japan.

The Science and Technology in Society (STS) forum aims to provide a new mechanism for open discussions on an informal basis, and to build a human network that would, in time, resolve the new types of problems stemming from the application of science and technology. The forum community also explores the opportunities arising from science and technology, and addresses how to remove the barriers to using science and technology to solve the problems facing humankind.

Dr Jones addressed the Forum during the Plenary Session: “Development across the World with Sustainability” with a speech on: Global mutual interests in scientific collaboration to achieve sustained equitable development
