<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt"> </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">Earlier this year, a global community of educators launched a series of panel discussions about the ideas of being a
<b>resilient educator of GI science and systems</b> - <a href="https://www.globalgiscienceeducation.org/">
https://www.globalgiscienceeducation.org/</a>. UCGIS has been helping to organize and promote these online conversations that discuss how these disruptive experiences can become opportunities for rethinking and re-envisioning our practices and perspectives
as we strive towards more resiliency. Videos of the first three panels (Asia-Pacific, the Americas, and Europe-Africa), as well as a summarized report from these, can be found here –
<b>Pedagogies for Resilient GIScience Education</b> - <a href="https://www.globalgiscienceeducation.org/conversations/panel-1-pedagogies">
https://www.globalgiscienceeducation.org/conversations/panel-1-pedagogies</a>. Now we’re in the midst of the 2<sup>nd</sup> set of panel discussions on the technologies and implementation. Join us!
