My poster focuses on my work as a GEFO in France and is related to this year’s theme: Natural Hazards, Human Impact, and Earth's Resources: Shaping Life and Earth. A GEFO is a Geoscience Education Field Officer for the EGU. We are now 11 people in Europe, one per country.

As a GEFO, I organise regional or national workshops to promote geosciences to primary and secondary school teachers.. I have been doing this job for one and a half years now, and I carry out my activities in several regions in France. I worked with inspectors to organise training sessions for primary or secondary schools teachers, I was invited by the APBG (Association des Professeurs de Biologie et de Géologie) and also performed with Geopark coordinators.
My poster illustrates the details of some of the workshops I run, how I engage people in the activities and the outcomes.
