To best represent the polar early career community, we need input from as many community members as possible. To achieve this, we are hosting virtual events, taking place 27–29 May (depending on your time zone). These interactive sessions are specifically for ECRs who weren’t physically at PECWS. The virtual events will provide you with: *An overview of PECWS and the polar early career community priority synthesis process *An opportunity to assess materials produced at the summit, specifically by providing live feedback on priority statements and their relevance to you and your work *An understanding of the synthesis products you are contributing to

The Polar Science Early Career Community Office (PSECCO) turns three, and we reflect on fun projects, insights and notable engagement numbers to celebrate on this three-year birthday for the community office via a blog post!

The Polar Science Early Career Community Office (PSECCO) Conference Travel Grant Program is now open for applications. Travel awards to attend and present polar-related work at a conference are open to polar early career scientists and educators. In this Summer 2025 funding cycle, PSECCO will be distributing up to $5,000 of awards. Applicants may request a reasonable amount of funding to support their travel to/from a conference, up to a value of $900 per person, with awards aimed at those with demonstrated financial need. An additional $100 is available for awardees who organize a PSECCO social event at the conference.
