Dear colleagues,

The Global Forum of Funders is organized by the International Science Council 
with a consortium of public science funders, donor aid agencies, and 
international scientific partners.


The 2nd Global Forum of Funders builds on a successful first event held in 
Washington DC in 2019, where science funders and the research community 
initiated a “Decade of Global Sustainability Science Action”. The event called 
for the identification of critical priorities for science that will support and 
enable societies to accomplish the SDGs by 2030.


The ambition to scale up efforts by funding communities supporting science for 
the SDGs is the strategic goal of the 2nd Global Forum of Funders. Meeting 
agenda and details at https://stories.council.science/science-missions/3/


I would like to thank International Science Council and the Global Forum of 
Funders for inviting me to contribute ideas for the session on Accelerating 
Open Science globally.  I learned a lot listening to all colleagues. I shared 
ideas from GeoForAll initiative [1] [2] [3]. I would like to thank all 
colleagues for their contributions to Open Science.


I am grateful to get the opportunity to learn Geospatial Science many years 
back. So many kind people and scholarships from universities helped me on my 
journey to learn Geospatial Science.

I am grateful to everyone, everywhere working for Zero Hunger Aim.


Best wishes,
