232: Shaping the Future of Humanitarian Geoscience

"How could you apply your own personal knowledge of geoscience, whatever specialty it is, to help solve humanitarian problems, no matter what the scale is?" Join host Andrew Geary as he speaks with Beth Burton to explore the newly formed Geoscientists without Borders (GWB) Technical Review Subcommittee (TRSC). This episode delves into the TRSC's history, purpose, and operations, offering insights into its significant role in advancing humanitarian projects through geoscience. In this episode, we talk about: > The formation and mission of the TRSC > Key principles and guidelines that shape the committee's operations > Criteria for evaluating and selecting projects for funding > The significance of the first mainland USA project in Houston > Upcoming GWB events at IMAGE, including a technical session and field trip > The evolving role of the committee and lessons learned > Opportunities for geoscientists to apply their knowledge to humanitarian efforts Listeners will gain a comprehensive understanding of the TRSC's role in advancing geoscientific applications for humanitarian causes and learn how to get involved in these impactful projects. This episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in the intersection of geoscience and humanitarian work. The podcast returns with new episodes on 12 September 2024.
