About

Each year, AGU’s annual meeting, the largest gathering of Earth and space scientists, convenes 25,000+ attendees from 100+ countries to share research and connect with friends and colleagues. Scientists, educators, policymakers, journalists and communicators attend AGU24 to better understand our planet and environment, opening pathways to discovery, opening greater awareness to address climate change, opening greater collaborations to lead to solutions and opening the fields and professions of science to a whole new age of justice equity, diversity, inclusion and belonging.

This December, AGU24 returns to Washington, D.C. with the theme “What’s Next for Science.”

To ensure meetings are available to the widest range of participants across the globe, AGU is looking to foster collaboration in a hybrid model aimed at capitalizing on both in-person and virtual participation.
