Main content
- ADVANCEing FieldSafety is a widely accessible training for anyone working in field science to help build a safe and welcoming field environment and team culture within the Geosciences and beyond. ADVANCEing FieldSafety aims to advance the following goals:
- Increase the competency of field teams and individuals related to safety, anti-harassment, positive field culture, and risk management through effective training and active learning, including roleplay activities and reflections.
- Enable effective preparation of field teams for field campaigns, through the creation and broad dissemination of an easily implementable risk and harassment mitigation toolkit.
- Broaden participation in field-based work, within and beyond the Geosciences by supporting a culture change towards a welcoming and inclusive environment for all scientists, particularly early-career scientists, and those from diverse backgrounds.
Research the effectiveness of field safety and anti-harassment training and the toolkit.
