Session ID#: 65274

Session Description:
This AGU Plenary Session will discuss the findings and recommendations from the National Academies’ June 2018 report, with an emphasis on field research situations familiar to the Earth and space science community. The special assembled panel will also discuss actions underway by those in higher education and in government agencies since the release of the report. The session will include perspectives from a U.S. Congressional leader, and audience Q&A on how individual researchers, scientific leaders, academic institutions and scientific organizations can adapt and apply the report’s policy and practice recommendations. Discussion will also include challenges and opportunities for extending the report’s recommendations more broadly to education and field research environments across the AGU international membership.
