The International Association of Hydrological Sciences (IAHS) actively supports Early Career Scientists (ECS) through a dedicated committee structure, recognition awards, and targeted funding mechanisms designed to strengthen scientific collaboration, professional development, and international engagement within the hydrological community. ECS members are encouraged to participate in IAHS Commissions and Working Groups as active contributors rather than […]

Since 2018, the International Association of the Physical Sciences of the Oceans (IAPSO) has a branch specifically for early career members of our scientific community, the IAPSO ECS (https://www.iapsoecs.org). With an early career participation as high as 80% in recent IAPSO assemblies, there is no doubt that early career members constitute a crucial part of

At the last major meeting of the International Association for Meteorology and Atmospheric Sciences, in Busan, Korea (BACO25.org), survey data from 951 respondents, out of 1725 participants, revealed that Early Career Scientists accounted for approximately 25% of the participants. The demographic profile skewed young, with 66% of attendees in their 20s and 30s (1). In

The International Association of Cryospheric Sciences (IACS) actively supports Early Career Scientists (ECS) through a wide range of initiatives designed to strengthen scientific collaboration, professional development, and international engagement within the cryospheric community. ECS members are encouraged to participate in IACS working groups focused on key scientific topics, as well as workshops, symposia, educational activities,

Within the International Association of Volcanology and Chemistry of the Earth’s Interior (IAVCEI), early career scientists are referred to as Early Career Researchers (ECRs), a term that reflects the broad range of roles and career paths within our community. ECRs represent 45.2% of the association’s membership, making them not only a significant part of the

IASPEI benefits from an active and growing community of Early-Career Scientists (ECS). In this blog post, we highlight the involvement of ECS within IASPEI – the International Association of Seismology and Physics of the Earth’s Interior (http://iaspei.org). The IASPEI ECS group was initiated during the IUGG General Assembly 2023 in Berlin, where early-career researchers identified

Actively promoting the involvement of ECS in IAG started in 2023 with the establishment of the IAG ECS Representative Group. Each Commission (Commission 1: Reference Frames, Commission 2: Gravity Field, Commission 3: Earth Rotation and Geodynamics, Commission 4: Positioning and Applications), each Inter-Commission Committee (ICC on Theory, ICC on Marine Geodesy, ICC on Geodesy for

IAGA benefits from a strong and active participation of Early-Career Scientists (ECS). In this blog post, we highlight the involvement of ECS within the ICEO – the Interdivisional Commission on Education and Outreach (https://iaga-aiga.org/index.php?id=education-outreach). The main goal of ICEO is to facilitate and strengthen international cooperation across IAGA. The commission plays a key role in the organisation of
