SUMMARY:GeoUtrecht 2020
DESCRIPTION:GeoUtrecht 2020 will be held as a virtual conference on 23–26th of August 2020. Due to the unusual circumstances\, the organisers have worked out a solution to offer the meeting free of charge but still with a comprehensive program. \nThis includes essentially all opportunities in the virtual conference environment which you are used to from f2f meetings. Amongst them are an icebreaker party\, public\, plenary and session talks\, an exhibition hall\, a coffee shop and virtual networking rooms. In addition\, we will enable virtual meeting space for your additional events you have in mind (e.g. working group meetings\, section meetings\, general assemblies etc.). Please indicate the latter via the newly (re-)opened registration in ConfTool\, so we can prepare it for you in advance. \nPlease find more information about the conference and register here.

SUMMARY:Careers outside of academia
DESCRIPTION:Up to 70% of scientists will transition to careers outside of academia after their PhD. Transferable scientific skills and knowledge are becoming progressively valued in non-academic job sectors. However\, navigating job opportunities and transitioning to different career paths can be difficult. This webinar will focus on the career paths of four scientists\, from a background of science areas\, who are working in non-academic sectors. The panellists will talk about their journey in finding careers\, tips for transitioning and what skills are particularly valuable to non-academic industries. There will be plenty of time for questions from the audience. \nSpeakers:\n– Dr Liam Brannigan: a senior data scientist at a start-up in Belfast called Analytics Engines. His PhD was in ocean sciences and he did a number of postdocs before his current job.\n– Dr Robin Andrews: a freelance science journalist. His PhD was in volcanology and his journalism focuses on volcanoes\, earthquakes and planetary science.\n– Dr Ashleigh Massam: a process architect for JBA Risk Management. Her role includes research and development\, data analysis and hydraulic modelling. Her PhD was in cryosphere and ice core modelling.\n– Dr Carly Matis: a physics teacher and researcher as part of the Researchers in Schools programme.

SUMMARY:GeoConnect³d – Framing geothermal resource management
DESCRIPTION:The causes and consequences of climate change have made us think of an energy transition where local geo-resources\, including geothermal energy\, come to the foreground. GeoConnect³d is a cross-disciplinary project\, funded under the GeoERA geo-energy theme\, with a focus on providing relevant geological context to allow for the identification of opportunities in the shallower and deeper subsurface. \nThis ‘geothermal session will start from an overview of an actual geothermal installation and align that with the GeoConnect³d methods and preliminary results to explore the relevance of those techniques for geothermal resource management. \nAgenda \n\n\n\n09:30-09:45\n\n\nWelcome and instructions for interactive session\n\n\n09:45-10:00\n\n\nHow deep is deep geothermal energy in Wallonia (Belgium)? | Guest speaker: Estelle Petitclerc (Geological Survey of Belgium)\n\n\n10:00-10:20\n\n\nBold and daring decisions: how to let everyone in on subsurface obscurities | GeoConnect³d speaker: Kris Piessens (Geological Survey of Belgium)\n\n\n10:20-10:55\n\n\nQ&A and interactive session focusing on receiving feedback from guest speaker and audience about the GeoConnect³d method\n\n\n10:55-11:00\n\n\nRecap of lessons and expectations towards GeoConnect³d\n\n\n\n  \nPlease register here.

SUMMARY:Webinar: The impacts of Covid-19 on Mining Regions and Cities
DESCRIPTION:The COVID-19 pandemic has exposed and effected mining regions and cities in different ways. The mining sector\, highly dependent on the commodity market\, is especially exposed to external shocks\, threatening jobs\, income levels and living standards at the local level. \nMining regions are exposed on two fronts by the economic crisis caused by the coronavirus pandemic. On the offer/production side\, the lockdown measures hinder normal working conditions and inputs supply throughout the mining value chain as well as investments in specific security and distancing measures\, which together can affect production levels. On the demand side\, the global drop of manufacturing and construction activity can reduce the demand for minerals and metals\, which may lead to disruptions in the value chain. These effects can particularly affect mining communities with low economic diversity\, threatening local jobs and income. \nThis virtual discussion\, organised by MIREU and the OECD\, will explore the impacts of the coronavirus pandemic on mining regions and the responses and opportunities emerging from this crisis. Mining regions may be exposed to the global economic downturn and must be prepared to respond to the effects on the income and welfare of their populations if they occur. This virtual discussion will serve as a platform to share experiences on the various mining regions and cities’ responses to the COVID-19 crisis (in the short and medium-term) and discuss opportunities to increase the resilience of mining communities for future shocks. \nThe meeting will take place on Zoom\, please register here. Before attending the workshop the organisers ask that you complete a short survey on the impact of COVID-19 on mining and metallurgy regions\, complete the survey here.  \n\nThe main topics of discussion will be: \n\nWhat is the impact on local mining economies and well-being during this crisis?\nWhat have been the different responses to face this crisis and keep well-being across mining regions?\nHow to recover activities without leaving anyone behind in approaching new normality?\nWhat are the opportunities and actions to attain a resilient future in mining regions?

SUMMARY:Embedding Gender at the heart of Responsible Mining
DESCRIPTION:The presence of mining companies can heighten gender inequalities within the affected area. Mining companies not only have a responsibility to ‘do no harm’ in this respect\, but also have an interest in enabling women and girls to fulfil their potential and have access to actively participate in socio-cultural life and in the development of the local economy. \nBy embedding gender at the heart of their activities\, mining companies can show they follow the Gender Guidance for the Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights that calls for the “integration of gender equality as a cross-cutting issue in all policies\, processes and strategies across all departments\, rather than treating it merely as a diversity or inclusion issue relevant only for the human resources department.” \nRepresentatives from different stakeholder groups will share reflections on the impacts of mining on women\, the main challenges and the opportunities for continuous improvement. \nPlease register here.

SUMMARY:GeoConnect³d – Framing groundwater management
DESCRIPTION:Groundwater is a crucial resource for humankind\, as well as for natural ecosystems. Therefore\, any subsurface use considers how it will affect shallow groundwater reserves. At least\, that is how it should be\, because these interactions are complex and uncertain. \nThis problem is approached by two GeoERA projects. VoGERA is a groundwater project that looks unidirectionally how groundwater is affected and aims at building generic schemes aided by results from case studies. GeoConnect³d is a cross-disciplinary project\, funded under the geo-energy theme\, focusing on providing the correct geological context to properly identify and evaluate pathways for interaction\, also between the deeper and shallower subsurface. \nAgenda \n\n\n\n09:30-09:45\n\n\nWelcome and instructions for interactive session\n\n\n09:45-10:00\n\n\nGroundwater at the receiving end: taking into account deep subsurface activities | Guest speaker: Koen Beerten (Belgian Nuclear Research Center)\n\n\n10:00-10:20\n\n\nThe deep and the drinkable: linking and understanding these subsurface worlds | GeoConnect³d speaker: Kris Piessens (Geological Survey of Belgium)\n\n\n10:20-10:55\n\n\nQ&A and interactive session focusing on receiving feedback from guest speaker and audience about the GeoConnect³d method\n\n\n10:55-11:00\n\n\nRecap of lessons and expectations towards GeoConnect³d\n\n\n\n  \nPlease register here for this free event.

SUMMARY:GeoConnect³d - Promoting geoheritage and geotourism
DESCRIPTION:In Europe\, there are endless geologic features with significant scientific\, educational\, cultural\, and/or aesthetic value. These areas are commonly well-known by local communities\, but rarely incorporated into geological models. GeoConnect³d is a cross-disciplinary project\, funded under the GeoERA geo-energy theme\, with a focus on providing relevant geological context for anyone interested in geology at surface and subsurface. This is being done through the structural framework model and annotated geomanifestations\, which define any distinct local expression of ongoing or past geological processes. These manifestations\, or anomalies\, often point to specific geologic conditions and\, therefore\, can be important sources of information to improve geological understanding of an area. \nAgenda \n\n\n\n09:30-09:45\n\n\nWelcome and instructions for interactive session\n\n\n09:45-09:55\n\n\nGeoheritage: Protecting geodiversity and raising the visibility of geology in our lives | Guest speaker: Mónica Sousa (Portuguese Association of Geologists)\n\n\n09:55-10:05\n\n\nGeotourism: A prominent commercial and outreach opportunity for geoscience | Guest speaker: Glen Burridge (European Federation of Geologists)\n\n\n10:05-10:20\n\n\nTackling the fundamental blind spot: can geology be explained and understood intuitively? | GeoConnect³d speaker: Kris Piessens (Geological Survey of Belgium)\n\n\n10:20-10:55\n\n\nQ&A and interactive session focusing on receiving feedback from guest speakers and audience about the GeoConnect³d method\n\n\n10:55-11:00\n\n\nGeneral recap of the online event series\n\n\n\n  \nMorei nformation and registration here

SUMMARY:Geophysical methods and the detection of environmental contamination
DESCRIPTION:This is  a course endorsed by EFG. \nOutline of content \nThe production of waste is a problem that has always accompanied the human being. In the last few decades\, this problem has become increasingly larger and more difficult to control. For this reason\, ways of minimizing this waste have been created over the past few years. At the same time\, the techniques used have evolved so that the storage of different types of waste is less harmful to the environment. However\, many wastes have been stored improperly for many years. Therefore\, to identify places contaminated by these residues. there are more innovative ways to detect them without having to use invasive methods. This course will focus on geophysical methods and their application on assessing environmental contamination\, giving relevance to mapping on large scale\, and its benefits in terms of cost reduction in comparison to other current methods (water and soil sampling\, for example). \nThis online course will focus on the great potential of these techniques and at the same time provide trainees with knowledge that will allow them to put these techniques into practice\, thus contributing to a global advance in the area of ​​environmental remediation. \nLink to the course \nObjectives \n–          To promote knowledge of techniques that allow the detection of contamination in environmentally degraded places\, caused by the deficient storage of urban solid waste deposits \n–          To encourage the use of this indirect approach to all types of places that require environmental remediation; \n–          To develop skills that will allow all trainees to implement the concepts and knowledge obtained in their current or future workplaces\, increasing their performance in all their activities; \n–          To contribute to a greater motivation of all stakeholders in the area of geosciences\, showing that there is still much to be done and that the role of each one in the future is relevant and really very important in environmental issues. \nCost \nRegular fee: 180 € \nAPG members and EurGeol fee: 135 € \nInscription form here

SUMMARY:Responsible Raw Materials Conference 2020
DESCRIPTION:Population growth\, coupled with our evolving needs and desires for new technology – including that powering the green economy – mean that society is going to continue using non-renewable natural resources for centuries to come.  Although a circular economy is often cited as the preferential situation\, it is currently leaky and needs feeding in the first instance. A transition to sustainable energy also requires more – and more obscure – elements than have been used before\, giving rise to the term ‘critical metals’. \nExtraction of raw materials through activities such as mining is therefore crucial to human survival and the green transition. Moving past the negative perception of mining\, which is already acknowledged as an industry challenge\, the real question is now “how to do it with maximum benefit and minimum impact?”.  \nWhile mining activities have been undertaken and honed for thousands of years\, there is still much more we can do to ensure that we mine in the most responsible manner possible\, across the value chain from artisanal diggings to large-scale industrial mines. In order for mining to become truly responsible\, it needs long term commitment\, support and leadership from all stakeholders inclusive of mining companies\, investors and regulators.  To date\, this has proven difficult\, in part due to differing opinions on how responsibility might be interpreted\, measured\, and rewarded. \nAttempts to reconcile initiatives have been welcomed\, but so far frameworks have not always provided enough practical change in operations and footprint. By providing the means for different stakeholders to contribute to a conversation\, we aim to produce a repository of up-to-date information that can be tapped\, so that it is possible to develop a streamlined\, industry-accepted notion\, with specific criteria and quantification methodology.
