Il CNR č associato a 49 Organismi scientifici internazionali non governativi che costituiscono le istanze organizzate della cooperazione scientifica, raccogliendo al loro interno la comunitā mondiale degli scienziati dei vari settori disciplinari.
Il CNR, quale Ente aderente per l'Italia, partecipa alle attivitā dei vari Organismi tramite i rappresentanti nominati presso ciascuno di essi, al fine di consentire il necessario raccordo tra le conoscenze e le aspettative della comunitā scientifica nazionale con quelle degli atri Paesi.
Il coordinamento nazionale della partecipazione ai vari Organismi č assicurato anche dalle Commissioni, composte da esperti nelle discipline afferenti agli Organismi stessi, che assolvono le funzioni di "National Committees" italiani previsti dagli Statuti delle principali organizzazioni internazionali non governative.
