  4. IAP and the European Climate Foundation: IAP, the InterAcademy Council (IAC) and TWAS, the academy of sciences for the developing world, joined the European Climate Foundation in holding a series of 'briefing-plus-discussion' workshops for delegates, especially those from smaller developing countries who will be in Copenhagend in December 2009 to seek to forge a new protocol as a follow-up to the Kyoto Protocol that expires in 2012. The Delegates must be fully informed about current scientific understanding and the full range of policy options available to mitigate and/or adapt to climate change. The workshops took place in July in Bangkok for Asia & the Pacific (organized by the Thai Academy of Science and Technology); Nairobi for sub-Saharan Africa (organized by the African Academy of Sciences); and Itaipava (near Rio de Janeiro) for Latin America and the Caribbean (organized by the TWAS Regional Office).  A detailed summary and workshop reports will be available soon.
