THE CALL FOR ABSTRACTS IS OPEN

Session 10.2 title:
Geoethics – fostering ethical perspectives in Geosciences
Conveners:
Dominic Hildebrandt (IAPG-Germany co-coordinator)
Simon Schneider (IAPG-Germany co-coordinator)
Martin Bohle (IAPG Board of Experts)
Session description:
Geoethics is a dynamically evolving concept framing various kinds of ethical aspects of Geoscience activities. As an expression of critical thinking and taking responsibility, Geoethics is fundamental to all kinds of Geoscience subdisciplines, however raising different types of questions and problems depending on the specific context. Many of these are intimately linked to specialties of our discipline, e.g. its historically male-dominated character as well as a strong focus on field work. With this session we aim to provide a platform for current works featuring critical analysis of 1) geoscience history and its implications, 2) intra-scientific issues such as gender inequalities or racism, 3) working methods and their implications for the environment, research objects and local communities, 4) geoscientists' work at the interface to society, politics and other stakeholders including geocommunication and geoeducation. We encourage you to submit your work to our session even if your specific topic is not covered above, but has a geoethical dimension.
