(Abstract deadline extended)36th IGC in Delhi, India (2-8 March 2020)

(Abstract submission deadline extended till 15th Nov. 2019)

The International Geological Congress is a mega event organised every four years. The next edition – the 36^th– will be organised in Delhi, India, March 2-8, 2020. The Congress has 45 themes, covering practically all aspects of Planet Earth, has 71 field trips, a GeoExpo, and a variety of other programs.

Of particular interest to you is Theme 1: GEOSCIENCE FOR SOCIETY co-ordinated by R. Shankar, Anish K. Warrier and Chris King. The theme has 11 symposia (including two on Geoscience Education; and Geoscience Communication and Outreach). Under each symposium there will be several sessions. You are welcome to submit abstracts at the Congress website (www.36igc.org) and visit India to make your presentation. Maybe you could also go on a field trip, organise a workshop/ short course and/or enjoy looking around the country, its culture and culinary specialties, its art and architecture, its history and heritage.

Thanks to the munificence of the Government of India, we are able to offer a Geohost Support Program that is unprecedented in the history of IGC! We will be providing 1000 free registration, 1000 airfares and 1000 local hospitality packages to geoscientists/ geoscience students. These will be provided either as full or partial support. So, hurry up and apply online for a Geohost grant!

Please visit our website www.36igc.org for all the details and more.
