Partnerships & Applications Workshop

June 26-27, 2025, 8:30 am – 5:00 pm, University of Oregon Portland Northeast Campus, Portland, OR

Workshop Goals

A forum for inter-organizational connection and collaboration around Cascadia seismic research and resilience

Following the first iteration of this workshop in June 2024, this two-day event is designed to explore the emergent challenges and needs of the multi-disciplinary community involved in earthquake hazard study and mitigation in the Pacific Northwest. A mix of CRESCENT research updates, community presentations, and facilitated discussion sessions will address the following themes:

Science communication
Emergency preparedness and response
Data availability and access
Resource limitations

We intend to attract representatives from across the spectrums of research, practice, policy and community organizations.

The Pacific Northwest Chapter of the National Association of Geosciences Teachers (NAGT) will be hosting their annual meeting alongside the CRESCENT Partnerships & Applications workshop and we look forward to some collaborative sessions to highlight geosciences education topics and opportunities.

Attendance

Please note that due to space limitations, attendance for this event will be capped. Workshop registration details coming soon.
