• Global collaboration: Opportunities to expand global collaboration, partnership and access to RI.
• Indigenous knowledge: Engaging with Indigenous communities and knowledge systems in developing and using RIs.​
• Hope and wonder (enabling future science): What are the future RI needs, how will they enable future science and technologies? Skilling the future workforce, and imagining RIs beyond 2050. ​
• Challenges: Climate change; Feeding the planet; Healthy communities: The role of RIs in addressing and collaborating on these challenges and showcasing best practice examples. ​
