B. Some Urgent Steps for Accomplishing these Goals I 



1. For U.S. Scientists: l 



a. Increased federal funding for: 



- pre- and post-doctoral grants for study of foreign nations, 



- unlverslty-to-universlty linkage grants In the sciences, 



- obtaining data and publications from Third World nations, 



- international colloquia, seminars, and Individual scholar 



travel , 



- participation of scientists in international meetings of key 



concern for U.S. foreign policy (e.g. UN and UNESCO, nuclear 

 treaty negotiation, ICSU, and other professional meetings.) 



b. Greater access of U.S. scholars to social, economic, political, and 

 other scentlfic data and publications now held by U.S. military and 

 Intelligence agencies under restriction or classification. 



c. Clear separation of U.S. Intelligence and military activity from 

 academic scholarly study of foreign peoples, nations, and regions. 



d. Congressional action to mandate either: 



1) creation of a national Institute for Science and Technical 



Cooperation, or 



2) international S&T activities in especially U.S. AID and NSF, where 



they are secondary to agriculture and to domestic science 

 respectively, as well as in other U.S. scientific and 

 science-relevant agencies (USDA, NIH, NOAA, etc.). 



2. For Third World Scientists, U.S. Funding for: 



-dissemination of U.S. science and science education capacities 



(esp. development-relevant science) to Third World university and 

 government research centers, 



-graduate education in the USA in development-relevant science, 



-re-orientation of individual scholars, teams of researchers, and 

 institutions toward "development science," 



-research grants for Third World science and for collaborative science 

 in order to provide small amounts of hard currency for the 

 purchase of critical scientific materials, equipment, travel, 

 consultation, or literature, 



-long-term linkage grants for collaboration with U.S. scientific 

 institutions (incl. professional and technical associations) 

 and for manpower development and institution building, 



-transfer of surplus scientific books, journals, and equipment from 

 U.S. donors.

 for Development.)
