Geoscience Education Committee
Strengthening geoscience education and outreach in Peru and beyond
The Geoscience Education Committee of IAEG Perú is our national initiative to promote innovation, collaboration, and impact in geoscience education. It forms part of the global efforts of the International Association for Engineering Geology and the Environment (IAEG) to advance learning, training, and outreach that connect engineering geology with society.
Established in 2024, the Committee serves as a hub for educators, researchers, students, and professionals interested in improving how geoscience knowledge is taught, shared, and applied in Peru and the wider LAC region.
