Past Global Changes, or PAGES, a core project of the IGBP, will hold its 2nd Young Scientists Meeting (YSM) in February 2013 in Goa, India, as a prelude to the subsequent 4th Open Science Meeting (OSM). The meetings aim is to build capacity for young and established scientists in the Asia-Pacific region and foster scientific exchange and collaboration internationally. Event highlights include scientific sessions that address burning scientific issues; strategic debates on future research requirements and discussions about research implementation; dissemination and outreach through scientific publications and reports, videos, and downloadable materials; networking via extensive poster sessions, breakout discussions, social events, and post-meeting opportunities; and knowledge transfer through scientific sessions, professional skill development sessions, and presentation feedback.
