As member of the Board of directors of The “Science and Technology in Society Forum” (STS), Serageldin participated in the Board Meeting held at the National Academy of Sciences in Washington DC.
The STS annual meeting is held on the first Sunday of October every year in Kyoto, Japan, and gathers top policymakers, business leaders, scientists, researchers, media leaders and Nobel laureates from all over the world, to address science and technology issues in the 21st century.
Established in 2004, the STS aims to build a human network, of a very broad a range of participants and organizations, that would, in time, resolve the new types of problems stemming from the application of science and technology. Shinzo Abe, Prime Minister of Japan, is the Honorary Chairman of its Board of Directors. Serageldin was one of the forty founding members of the STS and has been a major contributor at each of the annual meetings.
