Description

The ESRF is one of the very few cases where a synchrotron light source has been constructed under an Intergovernmental Convention. The ESRF governance, access, budget, procurement, communication, etc. are all framed by this internationality. The aim of the presentation is therefore to outline the ESRF model: how it operates in terms of governance and funding, key facts and figures, the ESRF access system, the return to its partner countries and its socio-economic impact.
