Beside 168 members from Serbia and all countries, members of EAGE/SEG Student Section are also very active (students and young researchers come from Japan, Serbia, Bosnia and Herzegovina and Montenegro).

Members of AGES participate in various committees of EAGE and SEG, but also at expert groups of EFG, EnERG, SPE and other associations.

AGES is accredited for R&D projects by EC (DG Energy & Environment) (FP 7, Horizon 2020…), but also by Ministry of Science and Education of Serbia as R&D society for national and international projects in Energy & Environment.

Beside organizing international conferences and lectures, and participation in annual meetings of EAGE, SEG, EnERGand other societies, AGES members participate(d) in two ECFP7 and several international projects (NATO, CEI, UNESCO, COST, etc.).
