International Geoethics Day

IAPG officially launches the International Geoethics Day on 12 October 2017, during the Earth Science Week 2017.

The aim of the International Geoethics Day is to raise the awareness of the geoscience community and society as a whole about the importance of ethical, social and cultural aspects of geoscience knowledge, research, practice, education and communication.
​
The International Geoethics Day will be held every year during the Earth Science Week.

IAPG welcomes proposals to organize initiatives aimed at promoting geoethics locally and globally to celebrate this day.

IAPG works for a respectful stewardship of the Earth: our way to take care of future generations.
