Science to Action - How to Work with Communities and Make an Impact

Explore how earth and space science can contribute to thriving communities and ecosystems in this 31-minute tutorial from AGU. Learn about cooperative practices between scientists and communities, including designing wetlands for flood mitigation, climate modeling for extreme event preparation, and solar forecasting for infrastructure protection. Discover methods for navigating cultural differences, designing science for social justice, and connecting scientific research to broader community priorities. Gain insights on bridging scientific and indigenous knowledge, addressing priority differences with integrity, and overcoming institutional barriers to collaboration. Examine implications for science education and literacy, and explore systematic changes that can foster collaboration, improve scientific practices, and create meaningful impact in diverse communities. Join presenters Julie A. Vano and Rajul Pandya as they share real-world examples, survey results, and innovative ideas for connecting science to action.
