AGU Voices for Science is a program launched in 2018 that centers around training scientists to address the critical need for communicating the value and impact of Earth and space science to key decision-makers, journalists, and public audiences. The program recruits scientists to participate in one of two tracks: policy or communications. If you are interested in applying for this program, please stay tuned from AGU Voices for Science website. 

This year, Dr. Shenyue Jia was honored to be selected as the 2023-2024 cohort for Policy Track. She has participated in a two-day on-site training at AGU headquarters in Washington D.C. and completed her first Congressional visit and meeting in the Capital Hill.
