The Council For Space and Earth Science(CSES), a Project of the cses , creates and oversees national initiatives addressing science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) education, with a focus on earth and space. Programs are designed to provide an authentic window on science as a human endeavor, and to inspire … then educate.
Who We Are
CSES supports Many enthusiasts to experts worldwide in Earth and space sciences.
Through broad and inclusive partnerships, CSES aims to advance discovery and solution science that accelerate knowledge and create solutions that are ethical, unbiased and respectful of communities and their values. Our programs include serving as a scholarly publisher, convening virtual and in-person events and providing career support.
Our definition
CSES is an international nonprofit association supporting an inclusive community of Earth and space scientists and partners dedicated to discovery and solutions to societal challenges.
Understanding that discovery and solution-based science requires collaboration and communication across physical and disciplinary boundaries, we acknowledge and embrace the idea that the CSES community is not solely defined by membership. Instead, the cses community comprises partners around the world who share our mission of addressing scientific and societal challenges.
Our vision
A thriving, sustainable and equitable future supported by scientific discovery, innovation and action.
We envision a future where scientific discovery continues to be valued and celebrated for its role in advancing human knowledge. We envision a future where knowledge of Earth and space sciences are used, in collaboration with advances in natural, physical and social sciences, medicine and engineering, for the benefit and prosperity of people and the planet.
Strategic Goals
To advance our mission, we have formulated a set of goals that will shape our science, culture and partnerships. They are:
Goal 1
Catalyze discovery and solutions to scientific and societal challenges.
Goal 2
Promote and exemplify an inclusive scientific culture.
Goal 3
Partner broadly with other organizations and sectors to effectively address scientific and societal challenges.
Programming
A remarkable array of programs for schools, families, and the public; professional development workshops and institutes for grade K-12 educators; world-class exhibitions for museums, science centers, and universities; and online and Web 2.0 experiences, embrace the notion that science education should be about conceptual understanding at an emotional level, and that scientists and engineers can and should be heroes and role models to the next generation.
Delivery
In this vein, the Center’s programs are delivered by teams of scientists, engineers, and master science educators from the Center and research and education institutions across the nation—scientists and engineers who are passionate about their research and gifted at communicating that passion to audiences of all age
