In tandem with the WINGS Women of Discovery Awards, WINGS hosts a Global Explorers Forum that showcases the work, challenges and expeditions of the most recent cohort of Fellows, who present their research before their peers and the public. Attending Fellows and Flag Carriers may also present recent initiatives and expeditions. The Forum serves to bring broader recognition to their work while also acting as an ideas ecosystem, a platform for education, and a connector to the next generation.
SPEAKERS: 2024 Fellows Dr. Paula Kahumbu, Dr. Patricia Medici, Ruthmery Pillco, Prof. Adriana Verges, and Dr. Jessica Ware. Come hear first-hand from the 2024 Fellows about their most recent research, initiatives and breakthrough discoveries!
