One of the Geological Society’s key strategic objectives is to “advance multidisciplinary Earth science to inform global issues”. To achieve this objective, the Society’s Science programme is underpinned by five core subject themes: 'Planetary Science', 'Geohazards, Geoengineering & Georesilience', 'Energy Transition', 'Digital Geoscience', and 'Climate & Ecology'.
These themes are the foundation of our events (e.g., conferences, workshops, webinars etc.) and training course programmes, and also inform our policy, outreach, and education work. Activities supported by the Society’s specialist groups, as well as various committees, are also aligned with the science themes. Each theme is led by one or more theme leads and supported by the Society’s Science team.
