Members of the Munich-based Executive Office recently met with other members of the EGU Outreach Committee just outside Pisa, Italy, to brainstorm about the Union’s various outreach activities. The two-day meeting, led by Chairman of the EGU Outreach Committee Niels Hovius, was held primarily to establish a coherent long- and short-term outreach plan for the Union, some of which will be covered in more depth at the upcoming EGU Council Meeting on 18-19 November in Munich. Topics discussed include the EGU’s commitment to education and the GIFT Programme, the Union’s media communications products, meetings support, and more general outreach developments that may be implemented in light of next year’s General Assembly.
Hard work in a beautiful setting!
