Fellows

From 1980 until 2021 IAS-ICSD has approximately 1,500 academicans (members), including 119 Nobel Laureates and members from 81 national academies of sciences. Also a small number of representatives of public and political life, e.g. acting and former head of states and ministers were or are members.

Today ICSD-IAS unites about 900 responsible scientists, philosophers and intellectuals of the world. From 1990 new academicans are elected by the national sections on the basis of their eminent original scientific studies or exceptional achievement and of their acknowledged moral personality, without any ethnical or religious discrimination.

Because membership is achieved only by election or invitation, there is no membership application process.
