GLOBE Partners

GLOBE Partners make GLOBE happen throughout the United States. Partners recruit, train and mentor new GLOBE educators and facilitators to promote the teaching and learning of science, enhance environmental literacy and stewardship and promote scientific discovery. To see if we have an active partner in your U.S. state or territory, see our list of U.S. Partners.

Student Research Symposia

Our regional Student Research Symposia (SRS) are great ways for your students to demonstrate their scientific skills. The U.S. GLOBE Office organizes six of these face-to-face symposia throughout the year, at which students can share their field measurements with professional scientists, engage in the scientific process, and network with their peers.

The symposia also have professional development and activities for educators. In the days leading up to each event, educators have opportunities to learn about facilitating student research as well as connect with scientists and other GLOBE educators to expand their educational community.

Watercoolers

To facilitate stronger connections within the U.S. GLOBE community, the U.S. GLOBE Office holds weekly, virtual "Watercoolers." These are informal meet-ups focused on sharing ideas around a weekly theme, like "The Future of Forests" or "Running Online Programs."

These get-togethers are open to all U.S. educators, Partners, and anyone else interested in attending.
