EFG’s Contribution to High-Level Expert Groups

Mountain landscape and a geoscientist in safety gear at a worksite.

At the European Federation of Geologists (EFG), we proudly contribute our expertise to a wide range of high-level expert groups across various sectors. Our involvement spans prominent international bodies such as the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and expert groups of the European Commission, among others.

Through the active participation of our specialists, we help shape standards, inform policy, and support best practices in geosciences and beyond.
