This award supports the U.S. National Committees (USNCs) within the Board on International Scientific Organizations of the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine. The primary goal is to support effective U.S. participation and strong leadership in international science. The U.S. mathematical and physical sciences communities are represented by USNCs in seven international scientific organizations: the International Astronomical Union (IAU), the International Union of Pure and Applied Physics (IUPAP), the International Commission for Optics (ICO), the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC), the International Union of Crystallography (IUCr), the International Mathematical Union (IMU), and the International Union for Radio Science (URSI). This three-year award will provide dues payments to the seven international scientific unions (one year only for IUCr) and provide support for the management of the USNCs at the National Academies. USNC staff will coordinate U.S. activity within the unions; coordinate committee preparations for union meetings; work with the committees to identify research topics, issues, and programs of interest to their specific disciplines; and identify and support U.S. scientists to participate in union activities. The intellectual merit of this project is demonstrated through activities related to the utilization of knowledge for the achievement of social goals, establishing nomenclature and standards, participating in the governance of the seven international unions, and advancing knowledge and understanding across the research community. Union activities encourage cooperative research and education efforts that reach across international boundaries and are designed to further develop and enhance each discipline nationally and internationally. The broader impacts of this project manifest themselves through union activities that promote teaching, training, and learning, that promote the growth of and diversity in the national and international workforce, and that help shape the international dialogue in the respective disciplinary areas.

该奖项支持美国国家科学院、工程院和医学院国际科学组织委员会内的美国国家委员会（USNC）。主要目标是支持美国有效参与国际科学并发挥强有力的领导作用。美国数学和物理科学界在七个国际科学组织中由USNC代表：国际天文学联合会（IAU）、国际理论和应用物理学联合会（IUPAP）、国际光学委员会（ICO）、国际理论和应用化学联合会（IUPAC）、国际晶体学联合会（IUCr）、国际数学联合会（IMU），国际无线电科学联盟（URSI） 这个为期三年的奖项将向七个国际科学联盟支付会费（IUCr仅一年），并为国家科学院的USNC管理提供支持。USNC的工作人员将协调美国在工会内的活动;协调委员会为工会会议做准备;与委员会合作，确定研究主题，问题和对他们特定学科感兴趣的计划;并确定和支持美国科学家参加工会活动。该项目的智力价值体现在以下活动中：利用知识实现社会目标、建立术语和标准、参与七个国际联盟的管理以及促进整个研究界的知识和理解。联盟的活动鼓励合作研究和教育努力，跨越国际边界，旨在进一步发展和加强国内和国际上的每一个学科。该项目的更广泛的影响体现在工会活动中，这些活动促进教学，培训和学习，促进国家和国际劳动力的增长和多样性，并帮助形成各自学科领域的国际对话。
