Since the launch of the NAWA PROM project (2025–2026), the Institute of Geological Sciences, Polish Academy of Sciences (IGS PAS) has been actively implementing a wide range of international activities combining scientific mobility, training, workshops, and field-based research.
Types of Activities
The programme includes:
- international conferences – presentation of research results and participation in global scientific events (e.g. International Sedimentological Congress, New Zealand),
- research visits, internships and scientific exchanges – carried out by researchers, PhD candidates, students, and incoming participants,
- workshops and training courses – both participation in international courses and organization of specialized workshops at IGS PAS,
- field-based research – geological fieldwork and applied studies in diverse environments
- incoming mobilities – hosting international students and researchers in IGS PAS laboratories.
Geographical Scope
Activities carried out so far demonstrate the global reach of the programme: Asia – Philippines, China, India; Europe – Germany,
Sweden, France, Romania; Oceania – New Zealand
These mobilities contribute to building strong and lasting international research collaborations.
Workshops Organized at IGS PAS
IGS PAS is also actively organizing international training activities, including:
- Seismic Stratigraphic and Tectonic Interpretations of Seismic Data (March 2026),
- Phase Equilibria Modelling of Metamorphic Rocks (Perple_X) (March 2026),
with additional workshops planned in the coming months.
Impact
The activities carried out so far have contributed to:
- strengthening international scientific collaboration,
- increasing the number and diversity of international mobilities,
- enhancing research competences of participants,
- integrating field, laboratory, and modelling approaches in geosciences,
- increasing the international visibility of IGS PAS.
