CAN’T STOP WON’T STOP – CONTINUING THE JOURNEY TO FULL INCLUSIVITY IN FRESHWATER SCIENCE WITH THE EMERGE PROGRAM

Emerge is a new, expanded effort to promote diversity within the freshwater sciences that builds upon the successful Instars program. With support from the National Science Foundation, Emerge will serve a continuum of undergraduate to graduate to early career scientists. The primary objective is a sustained and maximally inclusive community in which every Participant can build their professional network while simultaneously developing a strong sense of self- and group identity. Community building activities will include an annual, multi-day river expedition prior to the start of the SFS Annual Meeting, peer-supported participation throughout the Annual Meeting, and year-round virtual workgroups led by near peer mentors. Live workshops will also be offered in fall and spring to teach new skills in data management and analysis (combining National Ecological Observatory Network data with the R programming language) and in visual communication and graphic design (introducing Adobe Creative Suites software). Notably, all Participant expenses (airfare, lodging, registration, etc.) will be paid by the Emerge program. Join us at SFS 2021 to learn about the Emerge vision and program opportunities. Join us in our mission to change the face of freshwater science!
