Aiming to rise above the challenges the online setup poses, UP Geological Society (UP GeoSoc) continues to take up space in the virtual arena with the 9th installment of the National Geology Congress (NGC). Promoting the geosciences and its relevance to the society, NGC shifts its focus to bridge the gap between the public and the scientific knowledge. Mark your calendars as NGC webinars will take place on April 2, 8, and 23, 2022 via Zoom and Facebook Live.
Even with the predicaments brought upon the pandemic, UP GeoSoc continues to uphold the importance of scientific knowledge in the country. With over registered 1,000 participants and 10,000 Facebook Live viewers last year, UP GeoSoc prepared a lot more for this year! Calling all teachers, high school students, geosciences major, and earth science enthusiasts, NGC brings you:
