The Japan Geoscience Union (JpGU) and the American Geophysical Union (AGU) are pleased to announce that as a part of our partnership, we are moving forward with an exciting multi-year meeting collaboration. AGU and JpGU will hold jointly sponsored sessions at each society’s meeting.

In May 2017, JpGU and AGU will hold the first joint meeting of the two societies covering all areas of the Earth and space sciences as well as over 150 sessions presented in English for inter- and trans-disciplinary scientists. The meeting will be held in Japan, and is forecast to have 7,000-9,000 scientists from around the globe. Student travel funding will be available for these meetings. The theme for the meeting is “For a Borderless World of Geoscience”.
