Greetings
from Georg Kahn-Ackermann: On Informatics and Policy
Dear
Chairmen, Prof. Assenova and Prof. Stainov,
Dear
participants in the workshop,
Thank you
for your invitation to me, to give greetings for your important workshop.
Informatics is established in the last decades as fundamental science and is more and more applied in all fields of
society, i.e. the humanity lives in the information
society.
This is the
reason why the International Council for Scientific Development (ICSD) with its
central body, the International Academy of Science (IAS) proposes projects
concerning the foundation of International Universities IU), Int. Hospitals,
Int. Centres for Ecology, etc. Informatics is of especial importance for these
projects. In my contributions to the ICSD-conference in
It will be
recommendable to found also an independent Faculty for Informatics. As new
member of the EU social responsible Bulgarian scientists in the field of
informatics, together with their colleagues from other sciences could play a
leading role in the creation of a Faculty for Informatics. A project on this
field with concrete proposals concerning better education and research in the
field of informatics, related to application in science, medicine, ecology and
economy must be supported politically and financially, because this is conform
with the efforts of the EU and UN for a better situation in all countries (aims
of Agenda 21 of UN). In the name of the Presidium of ICSD/IAS and as an European politician, incl. in the position of Gen. Secr. of Eur. Council in the past
time as well as former Member of the German Parliament, I give my best
recommendations for your workshop and I hope that the participants will be
included in commissions for our ICSD-projects.
