@Naantu10 and I discuss some of the issues and solutions specific to ore deposit research parachute science. Whether you’ve got it right or wrong in the past, let’s draw a line under bad practice and move toward better, more inclusive international geoscience. DM for a copy
Halleluya Ekandjo@Naantu10

Our thoughts with @TMBelgrano on ending Parachute Science are published in the @SocietyEconGeol discovery, Jan 2022 issue. Head to lnkd.in/eEby5rhG for full copy of the article. #value (take) for #value(give) #geoscience #involvement #collaboration

As part of the @NERCscience Digital Technologies To Open Environmental Sciences Hackathon, we didn't want to just explore the issues. We wanted to tackle them. In an incredible feat of speed software development, @assortedginger built a proto-GeoCoLab app.

So, analytical geoscience knowledge creation is not equitably distributed either globally, or for individuals trying to work in this field. GeoCoLab is a proposed digital technology that aims to address this. Find out more in our next blog and tweet thread.

As part of the @NERCscience Digital Technologies to Open Environmental Science Hackathon 2021, we wanted to explore how these inequities in access to analytical facilities may play out in global knowledge production of analytical geoscience.
GeoCoLab@GeoCoLab

For some, they have had to discontinue their work entirely. How many research hypotheses are never tested? Whose knowledge is excluded? How does this inequity for historically excluded groups manifest in the discipline as a whole? We explore this in our next blog....

What is the impact of the 'access to analytical facilities gap'? During the @NERCscience Digital Technologies to Open Environmental Sciences, we went on to explore research activities and career trajectories of survey respondents. Full blog 👉 geocolab.github.io/blog/blog4/
GeoCoLab@GeoCoLab

This small survey sample has identified what we're calling the 'access to analytical facilities gap'. The gap is widest for minority researchers in the UK, and those from countries in the Global South. Why is this important? We explore this in our next blog...

GeoCoLab recognises that geoscience has deep inequities at all levels. During the @NERCscience Digital Solutions to Open Environmental Science Hackathon we set out to explore how these inequities manifest in analytical science.
GeoCoLab@GeoCoLab

Why GeoCoLab? There are deep inequities in Geoscience in the UK and Globally. We are motivated to provide a digital solution that would help closer some of this inequality. Read more about our motivation 👇 geocolab.github.io/blog/blog1/

Nearly all respondents cite a lack of funding and prohibitively competitive national schemes as a barrier to accessing analytical facilities. This was felt most keenly by those respondents who had 1 or more 'marginalised' identity.

We know that awards in geochemistry, which relies on analytical facilities, leadership positions, awards and honours are disproportionately given to white men, to the detriment of women and minority groups (Pourret et al., 2021).
