TWAS Regional Partners
The establishment of TWAS Regional Offices (as first known) was proposed by the Council and approved by the 13th TWAS General Meeting, held in India in 2002. Subsequently five Regional Offices have been established. By action of the TWAS Council, the name was changed effective in 2018 to TWAS Regional Partners.
