The United Nations 2030 Sustainable Development Goals ( SDGs or Global Goals) are a powerful tool for research groups to demonstrate the global impact of their work. However, many researchers do not yet understand the SDGs framework. Using the SDGs to bring your whole team together on one page can be a great motivator and team pages help to explain the wider context of all your work.
When The Global Academy was established an important aim was that over half of all members should identify as female.
We're committed to boosting the visibility of important work by female researchers to support the 17 UN Sustainable Development Goals by 2030.
A picture of the truly global nature of the Global Academy using data on the countries in which Global Academy researchers are working.
As at February 2023 there are 575 researchers in the Global Academy and we are proud to say that they are working in 79 different countries.
This indicator is an important measure which reflects not just the breadth of research undertaken by researchers in the Global Academy but also, importantly, the usefulness of the Academy website for other researchers seeking collaborators, for example.
