The Council of the International Geoscience Programme (IGCP) held its 3rd Session in February 2018 and evaluated 35 projects consisting of 22 ongoing projects and 13 new proposals. 7 new projects have been approved and 4 projects will be on one extended term, which means they will remain active without funding from IGCP. In 2018, a total of 22 projects will be financed by UNESCO and IUGS.
IGCP is supporting work on the following five themes:
- Earth Resources: Sustaining our Society
- Global Change and the Evolution of Life: Evidence from the geological record
- Geohazards: Mitigating the risks
- Hydrogeology: Geoscience of the water cycle
- Geodynamic: Control our environment
There are currently two CZ-related projects in support of themes 1 and 4, respectively:
- IGCP 665 - Sustainable use of black soil critical zone (approved in 2018)
- IGCP 661 - The Critical Zone in Karst Systems
