The Royal Society’s report (in cooperation with the American Association for the Advancement of Science) is the synopsis of a conference in 2009 in the United Kingdom and can be regarded as having brought up science diplomacy for the general discussion. Most importantly, the report develops an oft-cited taxonomy for science diplomacy, which distinguishes between diplomacy for science, science for diplomacy and science in diplomacy.
