/ Capacity development / Training initiatives by member institutions / Support for SOLAS International Summer School (postponed from 2021)

POGO Member, GEOMAR (Germany), received funding approval to support the 2021 Surface Ocean-Lower Atmosphere Study (SOLAS) International Summer School, to be held in Mindelo, Cape Verde, Africa. However, due to worldwide travel restrictions, the in-person Summer School on Cape Verde was postponed from 2021 to summer 2023.

The organisers held a virtual version of the School from 13-17 June 2022. More information can be found here.

The in-person summer school took place from 5-16 June 2023, in Cabo Verde.

The virtual and in-person SOLAS Summer Schools will make significant efforts to promote sustainability and diversity in science.
