Navigating the Anthropocene:
Connecting specialists for global solutions

About the initiative

We are a working group focused on integrating information from palaeoecology, archaeology and traditional knowledge to address urgent Anthropocene crises.

Together, we form ECHOES: Exploring Climate and Human Observations from the Global South.

Participate

We invite you to help cultivate the deep roots and future branches of the Anthropocene, an epoch marked by undeniable human footprints on Earth’s systems, by providing your expertise and perspectives from the Global South.

Join us in shaping solutions for the Anthropocene crisis.

Our Emblem

This emblem highlights our shared focus on studying the history and current issues specific to the Global South, guiding us as we work together to create a story of the Anthropocene that’s sustainable and inclusive. It’s the symbol of our scientific project, showing a globe with the Global South united in the Pangea formation. This emblem shows our dedication to making sure the perspectives of the Global South are at the heart of discussions about the Anthropocene. By using Pangea to represent unity, the logo shows how countries in the Global South are coming together to tackle the challenges posed by this epoch.
