This episode explores the inspiration for Geoscientists Without Borders® (GWB®) and the leaders that helped shape the program.
GWB® uses the specialized knowledge and technical skills of geoscientists to mitigate natural hazards by connecting universities and industries with communities in need. These global projects involve archaeology; earthquake, landslide, volcano and tsunami preparedness; pollution mitigation; habitat management; and water management.
Help us spread the word. Share this episode with your friends and colleagues. Communicate with your peers the work SEG and dedicated geoscientists in the GWB® program are doing. The more that people learn about GWB®, the better our chances of reaching sustained funding, recruiting volunteers, and continuing projects that impact communities.
