Call for Grants for the IAG-DENUCHANGE-2024 Working Group Workshop (Rome, Italy, 23–26 September 2024)
The International Association of Geomorphologists (IAG) announces the offering of 2 travel grants of 450 € (four hundred and fifty Euros) to support the participation of two Young Geomorphologists* worldwide (except those based in Italy) in the IAG-DENUCHANGE-2024 Working Group Workshop (Rome, Italy, 23–26 September 2024).
The meeting will take place at the Earth Science Department of Sapienza University of Rome, followed by two days of field trips. The first day field trip is organized in the Upper Orcia Valley (southern Tuscany), which is characterized by sub-humid badland processes and landforms, while the second day field trip focuses on analysing erosional processes on a broader time scale (since the Pleistocene) and spatial scale (basin scale) at the High Tiber Valley basin. The Workshop aims to gather various Earth scientists from all around the world to contribute to a better understanding of the Earth surface systems, and to facilitate future collaboration. The program of the Workshop includes a special session dedicated to presentations (both oral and poster) by Young Geomorphologists. During the Workshop, the Young Geomorphologists will have the opportunity to meet and engage discussions with scientists from various countries, and visit cutting-edge scientific study sites.
