Membership is currently based on country representation, however members do not formally represent their country. Members have to be in a formal and active position to provide science-based strategic advice to their democratic governments. Members are one individual for each of the European Union member states, nominated by the respective government. Scientific advisors of the European Union candidate states and those representing scientific advisory bodies of the European Union institutions and of specific strategic countries can be invited to join ESAF as Associate Members. Members and Associate Members are committed to ensure an inclusive exchange with other relevant actors that provide scientific advice within their respective countries. Members and Associate Members are committed to engage in the ongoing discussions within ESAF and to contribute in good faith to the general advancement of the science-based advisory process in Europe, particularly in situations of crisis.
