This National Science Foundation project grant award of $536,591 provides funding for the 27th Annual Globe Meeting from April 1, 2023 through September 30, 2024. The meeting will focus on open science and how the Globe Program's openly accessible database of over 233 million environmental measurements exemplifies the principles of open data accessibility, a priority of the sponsoring Geosciences program (CFDA 47.050).

Sessions will explore mobilizing data collection beyond borders, expanding classroom activities, mapping environmental indicators beyond individual data points, and societal benefits of open science. The University Corporation for Atmospheric Research will deliver the conference and related activities as the sub-awardee. This award supports the goals of the Geosciences program to advance fundamental earth science knowledge through basic research utilizing the Globe Program's extensive open data resources.
