Collaborations with Scientists
Collaborations with Scientists
As a result of prior collaborations I have had the opportunity to write and present with several scientists around fostering equity and diversity in the sciences. Collaborations related to climate justice and climate science specifically are found on the different aspects of this work on the Climate Learning and Empowerment area of this site.

Aspen Global Change Institute and 500 Women Scientists
In the spring of I was asked by a collaborative group of folks from 500 Women Scientists, the Earth Science Women's Network, and the Aspen Global Change Institute to help facilitate a meeting of women scientists from across the US to consider how to disrupt the persistent gender disparity in the geosciences. This opportunity allowed me to develop an amazing collaboration among some of the leading scientists in the world working on issues of environmental sustainability and climate change, a collaboration which continues to foster new work in interesting and emergent directions.
