Call for Application: Expedition "Adventure of Science: Women and Glaciers in Central Asia"

Deadline: 15-May-22

Are you passionate about Art, Science, and Nature and seek to understand the world around you? Are you interested in joining them on an adventure and explore a wild environment together? Do you want to meet like-minded curious young women and develop your personal and professional skills? Then join the 2022 Expedition of “Adventure of Science: Women and Glaciers in Central Asia”!

During this 10-days expedition, you will discover the Ala-Archa National Park in Kyrgyzstan and explore its beautiful glaciers and environment. You will be part of a diverse team of young women (18 – 25 years old) that come from across Central Asia and will spend these days in nature being trained in scientific methods, artistic observation, and mountaineering. You will discuss thematic topics connected to climate and environmental changes in the high mountains, and address them in groups by designing your own scientific project.

After the expedition, two public events will allow you to share your discoveries with scientists and professionals in related fields: a post-expedition event in Kyrgyzstan and an international online event. The program is designed to encourage critical thinking, curiosity, and expression of all sorts!

What do you need?                                              

The expedition is free-of-charge, and all necessary equipment will be provided. You don’t need any previous mountaineering nor scientific knowledge; they only ask for your interest and motivation!
