Summary:

We’ve recently celebrated our 4th birthday! Since our work started in 2011 we’ve had some great adventures, met some inspiring people and learnt a lot. Most of our work is taking place in universities around the UK. Through seminars and events we suspect that more UK geology students are being introduced to their role in international development than at any time previously. Alongside this university-level work we have organised two successful annual conferences, and smaller specialist events in the UK and overseas. We’ve been involved in a hazards education project in Ladakh, India and we are actively fundraising to strengthen resilience to volcanic hazards in Guatemala. Here is a selection of photographs highlighting the range of our work:
