Networking for more Geoscience in School Education – The Geoscience Education Field Officer Initiative

In 2019, the European Geosciences Union (EGU) began a new initiative to appoint Geoscience Education Field Officers and train them to provide professional development to school teachers who have elements of geoscience in their teaching curriculum.

Today, officers are installed in 11 European countries and even more beyond Europe. Between the officers all type of educational expertise is represented, there are school teachers, university lecturers, geopark rangers as well as teacher trainers.

The officers are to liaise with a small group of EGU recognised supporters in their own country. In order to initiate this process in Germany, the initiative will be explained and potential modes of action dicussed.
