Board & Staff

SIG's board was formed in 1999 to provide scientific guidance for the Millennium Science Initiative (MSI), overseeing its development in Chile and subsequent expansion to Brazil, Mexico and Uganda, and introducing the MSI concept in other parts of the world. Board members also led an effort to initiate a Global Science Corps and guided the establishment of the Regional Initiative in Science and Education (RISE). The SIG board held its final annual meeting in 2012, after which board members served as informal advisors.
