After designating 2022 as the “International Year of Basic Sciences for Sustainable Development (IYBSSD)”, the United Nations General Assembly has proclaimed 2024 to 2033 as the “International Decade of Sciences for Sustainable Development (IDSSD)” - acknowledging the imperative to bridge across scientific disciplines and knowledge forms in order to address the complex and intricate challenges of our time.

The decade aims to raise awareness of the importance of all sciences for sustainable development, and to actively concur, in accordance with national priorities, with the promotion of a coordinated, collaborative, scientific approach providing policymakers with evidence-based analyses and data necessary for establishing and effectively implementing policies in such a way that no one is left behind.
