Geoscience Communication (GC) is a journal to help share knowledge and give more "traditional" recognition to science communication in the geosciences. Science communication is used as an umbrella term by GC to cover all aspects of outreach, public engagement, widening participation, policy, knowledge exchange, and any other initiatives within the scope of the journal. It can be thought of as any initiative which seeks to communicate an aspect of geoscience to a wider audience than the experts within that particular field.

Come along to this Short Course to find out more about Geoscience Communication, meet the editorial team, and find out how you can turn your science communication and public engagement initiatives into reviewed research that is of benefit to the wider geoscience community.
