Working Group Summary

With its roots tracing back to a series of international symposia first organized in the late 1980s, the Environmental Geochemistry Working Group (EGWG) brings together scientists working at the intersection of geochemistry, human health, and the environment. The EGWG aims to provide an international platform for researchers around the world who study the sources, behaviors, and impacts of chemical elements and materials in the Earth's Critical Zone, and to foster scientific exchange and intercontinental collaborations by coordinating and organizing conferences, workshops, webinars, etc. We are particularly committed to supporting and promoting early career researchers (ECRs) with opportunities for networking and leadership. Co-chairs: Rachel Coyte (rachel.coyte@nmt.edu) and Zhen Wang (zhen.wang2@curtin.edu.au).

Despite the popularity of the ISEG symposia, they never had the support of any formal organization or association. Beginning in 2013, the IAGC became the official society sponsor of this very popular series. The ISEG is also sponsored by:

• The International Medical Geology Association (IMGA)
• The Society for Environmental Geochemistry and Health (SEGH)
