GeoLchat Information

At GeoLchat, our mission is to bridge the gap between society and Earth Sciences by overcoming the barriers that inhibit engagement and accessibility science. Our mission is to promote equal access and opportunities to Earth Science knowledge while advocating for inclusivity, diversity, equity, and accessibility (IDEA) in the field of geosciences. Through our bilingual (English and Spanish) science communication project on social media, we aim to communicate and promote the work of Earth, Atmospheric, and Planetary scientists from around the world. Specifically, we aim to: Raise awareness of geosciences and their connection to society within non-scientific communities. Enhance the visibility of scientific knowledge and literature produced beyond the global-north, with a particular focus on Earth Sciences. Promote the research and efforts of Latin-American geoscientists and science enthusiasts in the fields of Earth, Atmospheric, and Planetary sciences. Foster non-traditional and engaging learning experiences to demonstrate that science can be easily understood and enjoyable, moving away from its reputation of being inaccessible, boring, and complicated.
