In December 2023, following the 6th Annual IIES International Graduate Student Forum held in Puerto Montt, Chile, the IIES was pleased to welcome Universidad San Sebastián (USS) as a new member. With our new partner, the IIES aims to facilitate cooperation in academic research related to environmental problems and contribute to developing science and innovation between Chile and the other 11 member countries of the IIES.
