National Committees

National IGBP or Global Change Committees assist in the national coordination of relevant studies, facilitate linkages between national and international global change research, and often assist in the mobilisation of funds to support the central activities of IGBP. At present 75 countries have National IGBP or Global Change Committees. Many of these emerge from a developing world context and aim to pursue environmental sustainability principles. Global environmental change and development issues have long been concerns of IGBP, which has engaged a growing number of developing country scientists in its research, capacity building and scientific committees activities.
