If you missed the first lecture in our Sustainability Lecture series: Challenges and Opportunities for Science in Society you can watch it now.
The Geoscience and Geographical Sciences Committee is an all-island multidisciplinary committee formed in September 2014. The purpose of the multidisciplinary committee is to advise the Academy on the development of policy, address issues of concern through a programme of works and act as the national adhering organisation for the following international unions: International Union of Geodesy and Geophysics (IUGG); International Union for Quaternary Research (INQUA); International Union of Geological Science (IUGS) and the International Geographical Union (IGU). Its membership represents academia, industry and national organisations. It is the first Academy committee to participate in the Parliamentary Pairing scheme. The committee’s participation in the scheme to date has been very successful with strong links being established between politicians and researchers.
