Following the release of the Belmont Forum External Review that was conducted by Technopolis and Science-Metrix, the Belmont Forum community has come together to consider the report as presented to us and to respond with our thoughts on the way forward.

While the review itself was very positive on the role of the Belmont Forum in the global landscape, it also provided us with a set of recommendations to work towards, moving forward, in order to help prepare the Belmont Forum Secretariat and community to ensure the long-term sustainability of this global partnership platform.

“The Belmont Forum’s vision, objectives, and activities are still highly relevant today. The Forum’s governance structure is practical and functional, the policies are coherent and the operations efficient.” -Belmont Forum External Review
