About Eurasian Academy

International Scientific Organisation

The International Academy of Eurasian Sciences is an international scientific organisation established in January 1994 and registered in the United Nations as a non-governmental organisation of UNESCO. Headquartered in Moscow, Russia, it is composed of the Faculty of Science and the International Science Centre. Its members include more than 600 academicians, academicians and honorary members from 46 countries around the world. They are all famous natural scientists, engineering experts and social scientists from various countries.

National science centres have been established in the following countries:

Russia, Britain, China, Finland

The International Eurasian Academy of Sciences

The International Eurasian Academy of Sciences was established in 1994 on the initiative of several eminent scientists from Europe and Asia. IEAS is a public organisation bringing together scientists, scholars, and prominent actors in culture, art, and social life, involving over five hundred members from eighty-seven countries.

IEAS Global Presence

Russian Headquarters (Moscow): The global headquarters of IEAS, located in Moscow and led by IEAS President Academician Valery G. Bondur. The Russian Headquarters coordinates the overall activities of the Academy and hosts the European-Asian Regional Scientific Centre chaired by Academician Vladimir Tikunov, specialising in geoinformatics, cartography, and environmental monitoring across the Eurasian landmass.

Finland Centre (Helsinki): The European Regional Scientific Centre, hosted at the Institute for Atmospheric and Earth System Research (INAR), University of Helsinki, and chaired by Academician Markku Kulmala. The Finland Centre focuses on atmospheric and earth system research, hosting the Pan-Eurasian Experiment (PEEX) coordination office.

China Centre (Beijing): The Asia-Pacific Regional Scientific Centre, chaired by Academician Wang Qinmin, focusing on environmental challenges, green economy, and sustainable development across the Asia-Pacific region.

United Kingdom Centre (UK): Established in 1995 as a key branch of IEAS in Western Europe, dedicated to international technological exchange and scientific collaboration between Eurasia and Europe. The UK Centre operates as a National Scientific Centre under the European Regional Centre while maintaining direct liaison with all three Regional Centres.

Global Governance Structure

IEAS Assembly

The Assembly is the highest decision-making body of IEAS, convened at regular intervals to review major lines of activity, evaluate results, approve Presidium reports, and consider Audit Commission conclusions. All Academicians in good standing are entitled to participate.

IEAS Presidium

The Presidium is the governing body of IEAS between Assemblies, elected for a five-year term. The Presidium includes the President, the Past President, the Presidents of the Regional Centres, Vice Presidents, the Chief Scientific Secretary, and the Presidents of major National Centres with at least thirty members.

IEAS Bureau

The Bureau is formed to address ongoing issues within the Presidium, meeting at regular intervals to review membership applications, approve financial matters, and manage day-to-day affairs of the Academy.

Secretariats

Secretariats are the working bodies of IEAS, formed on the basis of each Regional Centre. The Secretariats are responsible for administrative operations, communications, and coordination across the IEAS network.

IEAS Headquarters

The headquarters of IEAS is determined by the location of the President of the Academy. Currently, the headquarters is located in Moscow.

International Cooperation

IEAS maintains formal and informal relationships with a range of international organisations. These include UNESCO, the World Meteorological Organization (WMO), the International Cartographic Association, the International Geographical Union, and national academies of sciences across Eurasia. The UK Centre shall build upon these relationships while establishing new partnerships with UK-based learned societies and research councils.

·2017–2022：Served as Vice President of the Russian Academy of Sciences.

Professor Bondur's principal academic contributions lie in establishing the theoretical foundations and methodological frameworks for space-based observation systems targeting the oceans, atmosphere, land surfaces, and near-Earth space, and he has achieved systematic accomplishments in natural disaster monitoring, environmental protection, ocean exploration, and related Earth science research. He has developed methods for spatial spectrum measurement of the oceans using remote sensing, multi-frequency radio wave recording techniques, multi-frequency emission tomography, and radiometric measurement approaches; he has devised remote diagnostic techniques for short-term precursors of strong earthquakes, as well as online satellite-based monitoring methods for the atmosphere and ionosphere; and he has established a new class of information features derived from aerospace imaging spectrometry capable of characterising the shape, orientation, and energy distribution of surface objects. Professor Bondur discovered previously unknown early-stage phenomena related to the deformation of the spatial structure of ocean waves, as well as the honeycomb-type structure of the near-surface ocean layer; he revealed systematic changes in geomorphological contour patterns detected on satellite images during the preparation and outbreak phases of earthquakes; and he elucidated the mechanisms governing the interaction between deep-seated hydrophysical fields and surface waves, as well as the near-surface ocean layer. The methods and theories he has proposed have resolved a range of critical challenges in Earth observation and have been implemented in five Russian remote sensing satellite systems, and satellite monitoring initiatives he has launched—including the space-based monitoring of oceans, natural disasters, air pollution, and terrestrial ecosystems—are currently either operational or under active development. He is the author or co-author of over 650 scientific publications, including monographs and peer-reviewed papers, and holds an H-index of 64. His systematic research achievements have established him as a highly influential scientist in the field of space-based Earth observation, both in Russia and internationally.
