Calling All Social Scientists

USGCRP and the Social Science Coordinating Committee are hosting an informational webinar for social scientists interested in contributing to NCA5 on October 27, 2020, from 3:30–4:30 PM ET. The webinar will focus on increasing the integration of social sciences throughout NCA5, and highlight opportunities for researchers and individuals to get involved. USGCRP leadership will provide an introduction to the Program and the NCA, and social scientist authors of past NCA chapters will share their experiences.

We invite anyone from the social science community who is interested to register at this link, and we will follow up with connection information and a calendar hold. The presentations will be recorded for those unable to attend live.
