Society of Women Geoscientists

The Society of Women Geoscientists (SWG) is an organization dedicated to promoting the role of women in the geosciences, which includes fields like geology, meteorology, and oceanography. Founded in 1972, the SWG aims to support female geoscientists through networking, mentorship, and professional development opportunities. It also seeks to increase female representation in the field and advocate for equity in the geoscience community. Through scholarships, conferences, and outreach programs, the SWG empowers women to pursue and advance their careers in geoscience, fostering a more inclusive and diverse scientific environment.
