Nationally recognized programs
AGI already delivers nationally recognized programs:
- GeoRef — the world’s most comprehensive geoscience database, with 4.8 million references.
- Earth Science Week — engaging millions globally for over 25 years with geoscience outreach.
- Workforce intelligence reports guiding national talent strategies.
- Policy support in the form of fellowships and congressional briefings.
- Dozens of additional programs, services, and publications that underpin the vital work of geoscience professionals.
GER scales and connects these efforts for systemwide impact.
Why AGI is positioned to lead
AGI is the federation hub of the geoscience enterprise — the only organization positioned to coordinate across all sectors. It integrates workforce, education, research, data, and policy in a way no other organization does.
That integration matters because the geoscience enterprise itself is interconnected. Data systems influence workforce decisions. Education affects public trust and future talent. Policy engagement shapes infrastructure, resilience, and stewardship. Research and innovation drive competitiveness. Strategic collaboration ties everything together.
