resources


outreach and education

PAGES fosters networking, outreach and capacity building through National PAGES, regional workshops and educational meetings (see calendar of PAGES-supported events), meeting support for developing-country and early-career scientists, and PAGES website and publications (e.g., PAGES newsletter, PowerPoint slides and videos of presentations from PAGES OSM). PAGES also has a Guest Scientist Program.

You will also find links to international organizations, funding agencies, information on scholarships, listservers and Forums, and data sources here.


The list below contains links to web resources for education and outreach in the area of past global changes. Please help us to improve the list. Send your relevant outreach and education links to Anand Chandrasekhar.
