These resources are aimed at helping create more inclusive and accessible environments.

Building a more inclusive geoscience community takes awareness, collaboration, and action. This is a great time to learn something new - and share it with others.

πŸ“£ In celebration of yesterday's International Women's Day, let us all take a moment to listen, reflect, and take action.

International Women's Day is a moment to acknowledge the progress we have made, but also the barriers that shape careers, experiences, and connections in geology and beyond.

The reasons for this may vary, but it is clear that there are persistent challenges leading to talented and experienced women leaving geoscience.

While finding solutions can be difficult, there are some incredible resources to help us identify areas for improvement.

International Day of Women and Girls in Science 11 February

Today is International Day of Women and Girls in Science!πŸ”¬πŸ”­

This year's theme is: From vision to impact: Redefining STEM by closing the gender gap.

In STEM we know that the number of women in academia decreases with increasing career stage. Geoscience is one of the least diverse fields of all.
