Look out for a comment in Nature tomorrow that IPBES has dropped the ball on the social sciences.

Subject: IPBES expert groups: views from insiders

Dear colleagues,

This piece of analysis might be of interest to you. The French Committee for IPBES recently conducted a survey among French experts participating to IPBES work in task forces and expert groups, in order to get a better understanding of how they work and what the strengths and weaknesses of these groups are. They also formulated several recommendations for authors and technical support units managing the groups, and for the IPBES Secretariat.

The document is in French, but you can find an executive summary in English on pages 2-3.

This will also be sent informally to the IPBES Secretariat, in the hope that it can help them improve the way IPBES works in the future.

For more information, please contact Agnes Hallosserie from the FRB (Cc:)

Best wishes,
Hilde
