Join the Movement for Inclusive Change in Geoscience: C-ChanGe Project Seeks Faculty Teams

The new Cultural Change in Geoscience (C-ChanGe) project is inviting faculty teams to lead the way in making geoscience more inclusive and equitable, offering professional development, leadership training, and community-building resources.

NSF Funds SERC-Hosted Workshop to Foster Cultural Change and Belonging in Geoscience Education
The upcoming workshop will bring together geoscientists, educators, and change agents to explore strategies for enhancing inclusivity and belonging within the geosciences. By integrating diverse perspectives and focusing on key areas like departmental culture and inclusive spaces, the event aims to guide future professional development programs that cultivate a more supportive and diverse geoscience community.
