International scholarly meetings provide excellent forums for scientists from the United States and other nations to meet, review the latest research results, share ideas regarding future research directions and plans, and develop new networks to facilitate collaborative research and other forms of capacity building. Since 1995, the biennial Open Meeting of the Human Dimensions of Global Change Research Community has emerged as the leading venue for social scientists and scientists in related fields to address issues associated with human activity and behavior with respect to global environmental topics. This award provides funds to support the participation of scientists from developing nations as well as young scientists from the United States in the fifth HDGC open meeting, which will take place in Montreal, Quebec, Canada, in October 2003. These funds will complement contributions made from the Asia Pacific Network on Global Change Research, the Inter-American Institute for Global Change Research, the German Research Ministry, and the International Human Dimensions Programme.Based on previous experiences, HDGC open meetings have generated a number of positive outcomes, including enhancement of regional collaborations, capacity-building activities to strengthen transnational networks capable of conducting problem-oriented, cross-disciplinary research relevant to global change, showcasing the scientific contribution of participating countries and research programs, increasing awareness of the value of HDGC research for policy making, strengthening of links between social scientists and other global change research programs, and stimulation of the highest quality research. The 2003 meeting in Montreal is expected to result in comparable benefits. Through this award, a broader range of scientists from the U.S. will be able to participate, and they will have more increased opportunities to meet with and develop working relationships with counterparts from developing nations.

国际学术会议为来自美国和其他国家的科学家提供了很好的论坛，以满足，审查最新的研究成果，分享关于未来研究方向和计划的想法，并开发新的网络，以促进合作研究和其他形式的能力建设。 自1995年以来，两年一次的全球变化研究界人的方面公开会议已成为社会科学家和相关领域科学家讨论与全球环境主题有关的人类活动和行为问题的主要场所。 该奖项提供资金，支持发展中国家的科学家以及美国的青年科学家参加将于2003年10月在加拿大魁北克蒙特利尔举行的人类基因组理事会第五次公开会议。 这些资金将补充亚太全球变化研究网络、美洲全球变化研究所、德国研究部和国际人的因素方案的捐款，根据以往的经验，人类发展全球变化小组公开会议产生了一些积极成果，包括加强区域合作，开展能力建设活动，加强能够开展与全球变化有关的面向问题的跨学科研究的跨国网络，展示参与国和研究方案的科学贡献，提高对HDGC研究对政策制定的价值的认识，加强社会科学家与其他全球变化研究计划之间的联系，并激励最高质量的研究。 预计2003年蒙特利尔会议将产生类似的效益。 通过这一奖项，来自美国的更广泛的科学家将能够参与，他们将有更多的机会与发展中国家的同行会面并发展工作关系。
