Thanks to the enthusiastic efforts of our members and volunteers, EGU25 was another record breaking year with an incredible 20,984 people participating in the General Assembly, both in Vienna and online!
Giorgia Stasi will be the first ever EGU volunteer to serve as Early Career Scientist Representative and be elected to lead her division, Energy, Resources and Environment, as Division President, whilst still in the Early Career Scientist stage.
EGU stands behind our sibling American scientific societies, providing our support for them and all their members in the face of recent changes to US scientific policy.
The Union restates our support for a geoscience community that is diverse as an essential feature of conducting cutting edge, innovative science research. In order to support this, we share a list of EGU’s tools, resources and policies that our community can use to broaden access to science, both in Europe and around the globe.
Following a vote by EGU’s volunteer Council, the Union will no longer be posting on X, formerly known as Twitter.
Walking the halls of the EGU General Assembly 2025 a few weeks ago, I was full of child-like curiosity.

I learned about mountain ecology and failing snow-models, and I was captured by graphs and animations – as well as by the people explaining them to me. I was elated at first. Yet …

A place they keep coming back to over time, maybe even after years of resisting it. For me, it’s the River Neath in South Wales, which rises on the slopes of Fan Gyhirych before winding thirty-one kilometres southeast to the sea. In 2024, I was drawn to the …

It’s been some pretty busy weeks of preparation behind the scenes after the EGU General Assembly to bring together the new blog team for the year 2025-2026. We are a team of early career scientists who are very enthusiastic about sharing news and views about Geodynamics, Academia and beyond. This year we are …
