*** 9709909 Because of the world-wide nature of modern science and engineering, it has become essential for U.S. scientists and engineers, as well as their professional organizations, to remain in close touch with the activities and plans of their foreign counterparts, in part as a means to facilitate the development of collaborative programs. Additionally, gaining a better understanding of many important problems, such as those associated with the global environment, data quality and access, and the training and utilization of research personnel, require cooperative efforts on a multilateral basis. An increasing number of such problems either cut across, or transcend, individual scientific disciplines. The oldest and most extensive mechanism for facilitating world-wide communication between U.S. scientists and engineers and their foreign counterparts is the array of non-governmental international disciplinary unions and cross-disciplinary committees that together comprise the International Council of Scientific Unions (ICSU), a multilateral organization comprised of non-governmental adhering organizations in over 90 countries. This award will permit the National Academy of Sciences to continue to manage U.S. participation in the ICSU complex. It provides dues payments to ICSU and 20 international disciplinary unions, and funds to support the activities of the 21 committees of U.S. scientists and engineers who represent U.S. interests in ICSU and its disciplinary unions.

*** 9709909由于现代科学和工程的全球性质，对于美国科学家和工程师及其专业组织而言，与其外国同行的活动和计划保持密切联系，部分原因是促进协作计划的发展。 此外，对许多重要问题（例如与全球环境，数据质量和获取以及研究人员的培训和利用相关的问题）有了更好的了解，需要在多边进行合作努力。 越来越多的问题跨越或超越个人科学学科。 最古老，最广泛的机制是促进美国科学家与工程师及其外国同行之间在全球范围内进行沟通的机制，是一系列非政府国际纪律工会和跨学科委员会，共同组成了国际科学工会委员会（ICSU），一个多层组织，一个多边的组织组成了由非范围内政府admental adpernation Adhering Bermandations in nouthdy 90 inty 90。 该奖项将使美国国家科学院能够继续管理美国参与ICSU综合体。 它为ICSU和20个国际学科工会提供了会费付款，并提供了支持21个美国科学家和工程师委员会的活动，这些委员会代表美国在ICSU及其纪律工会的利益。
