ESWN Volunteer Opportunities

ESWN has a wide variety of volunteer opportunities available. Please email us if you are interested in getting involved in any of these opportunities:

 

– Discussion leader for online forums: respond to posts to make sure that questions are answered and discussions keep going

            -Contact Erika Marín-Spiotta

– Member of Awards Committee: work to improve the number of women receiving awards by dividing and conquering the work of nominating. For example, one person leading each nomination, one person helping to draft text, one person contacting the letter writers. NOTE: AGU Union nominations due March 15 so this is a time-sensitive project, although other programs have nominations through the year
