Preparing for EGU25! Get all our tips, tricks and resources to prepare for the upcoming General Assembly! With EGU25 just under a month away, it's all systems go at EGU headquarters preparing for the meeting! Whether it's your first time attending, or you want to understand our systems like the EGU Code of Conduct, the EGU blogs have all you need to stay up to date. Also don't miss the EGU's last monthly Updates with everything you need to prepare, sign up to the EGUtoday newsletter with the top events for each day of the meeting, and check out our playlist of EGU25 walk-through videos showing you what to expect whether you are a convener, a presenter or a member of the audience for our hybrid meeting experience. This month we also learned about a special scientific landscape under threat; Sarakiniko on the island of Milos, Greece is facing devastation due to upcoming construction plans. EGU Planetary and Solar System Science (PS) Division President, Anezina Solomonidou said in her blog "Sarakiniko is a rare and invaluable window into Earth’s geological past, a scientific asset for planetary research, and an irreplaceable natural wonder. If we do not act now, the loss of this site will be irreversible, depriving future generations of its scientific and cultural legacy." For all our talented photographers, the EGU Photo Competition is still open for submissions; enter by 31 March and you could win free registration to EGU26, and the admiration of your peers!

SCIENCE FOR POLICY

Join the EGU’s new Climate Hazard and Risk Task Force Make a difference in European policymaking by joining EGU’s new Climate Hazard and Risk Task Force, which, starting in April 2025, will support the transfer of climate hazard and risk-related knowledge to policymakers and promote evidence-informed policymaking. The 8-10 selected experts will gain experience working at the science-policy interface in the European policy landscape. Submit an application by midnight on 31 March 2025.
|
EGU’s policy-relevant publications The EGU’s science for policy team regularly updates the policy-relevant papers section of the EGU website to highlight publications from EGU’s scientific journals that may be useful for policymakers and support evidence-informed decision-making. If you have published in an EGU-related journal and believe it is relevant to policymakers, you can share that with EGU’s policy team via policy@egu.eu.
