Dear TWAS Donor,
On behalf of the TWAS Council and the entire TWAS community, I thank you sincerely for your generous contribution to our Academy.
For 40 years, we have been working to advance science in the developing world – through education and training, through award programmes, and through engagement with policymakers and diplomats. Because of this commitment, TWAS has become synonymous with scientific excellence. But while we can point to success stories all over the world, there is still so much important work to be done.
Scientific expertise is needed across the South to meet the challenges of food and water security, energy, health and climate change. Africa alone will need hundreds of thousands of new, highly educated scientists, engineers and technical workers in the decades ahead. And science diplomacy will be called upon to develop cross-border solutions and build international partnerships that can address the profound challenges that confront people everywhere.
Your donation is a significant contribution toward building sustainable scientific skill and strength in countries that need it most.
We are deeply grateful for your partnership in our mission. Working together, we can help to make a healthier, more peaceful world.
Best regards,
Quarraisha Abdool Karim
TWAS President
