As the science community works together to solve large-scale global challenges, the commitment and accord of funding agencies is invaluable in advancing the work necessary to solve these challenges. The planning meetings on Science Diplomacy to Promote and Strengthen Basic Research and International Cooperation will explore options and best practices for U.S. and other funding agencies to consider with regard to global norms for basic research collaboration. The meeting will also investigate the role of U.S. and other funding agencies in science diplomacy and how best to leverage and strengthen networks. As global problems affect the U.S population and others around the world, promoting the advancement of basic science aims to benefit the public within the context of working toward global solutions.The Global Research Council (GRC) represents an important constituency of heads of science and engineering funding agencies from around the world that are dedicated to promoting high-quality collaboration among funding agencies worldwide. The GRC plays a unique role in the scientific research enterprise, as scientists rely on funding agencies to conduct their work. The planning meetings on will identify different mechanisms and approaches for investigating the links between international basic research cooperation in the context of science diplomacy, such as: What are the current structures currently available to look at international basic research cooperation in a frame of science diplomacy?; What are the areas within basic research that might be worth exploring in greater depth to better connect research funders and science diplomacy practitioners?; What opportunities are there for the GRC and funder community to find new ways to work together on those areas and projects?This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

随着科学界共同努力解决大规模的全球挑战，资助机构的承诺和一致在推进解决这些挑战所需的工作方面是无价的。促进和加强基础研究和国际合作的科学外交规划会议将探讨美国和其他资助机构考虑的关于基础研究合作的全球规范的选择和最佳实践。会议还将调查美国和其他资助机构在科学外交中的作用，以及如何最好地利用和加强网络。由于全球问题影响着美国人口和世界各地的其他人，促进基础科学的进步旨在使公众在寻求全球解决方案的背景下受益。全球研究理事会（GRC）代表了来自世界各地的科学和工程资助机构负责人的重要选区，致力于促进全球资助机构之间的高质量合作。GRC在科研事业中发挥着独特的作用，因为科学家们依靠资助机构来开展他们的工作。关于国际基础研究合作的规划会议将确定在科学外交背景下调查国际基础研究合作之间联系的不同机制和方法，例如：目前在科学外交框架下研究国际基础研究合作的现有结构是什么？基础研究中哪些领域值得更深入地探索，以便更好地将研究资助者和科学外交实践者联系起来？在这些领域和项目上，GRC和资助者群体有什么机会找到新的合作方式？该奖项反映了美国国家科学基金会的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
