  • Select representatives for the Steering Committee
  • Provide general guidance regarding the priorities and direction of the Network’s activities
  • Receive reports from the Working Groups on activities conducted under the aegis of the Network,
  • Present other initiatives that are of interest to the Network Members and Partners.

Delegates include:

  • The Steering Committee Members
  • Member Centres of Excellence
  • Organisations/companies/institutions that have obtained Network Partner status by sending in the signed GNESD Statement of Commitment to the Secretariat.
  • Potential Centres of Excellence in both developing and industrialized countries that have filled in the GNESD Network Member questionnaire. Both the Network Partner Statement of Commitment and the Network Member Questionnaire are available from the Secretariat upon request.

The first GNESD Network Assembly took place on the 22 November 2003 at the Holiday Inn in Nairobi, Kenya. At the Assembly it was decided to invite three New Centres to joint the Network. These were IIIEE, (Sweden),  Fraunhofer Institute (Germany) and  AEA Technology, Future Energy Solutions, (UK).

The second Network Assembly was held on 15 December 2004 in Noordwijk, The Netherlands. The 36 Assembly delegates approved the GNESD Work Programme 2005 - 2007 and decided to maintain the Secretariat location during this period. The Assembly also appointed representatives for the 2005 GNESD Steering Committee.
