Future Challenge
Future challenges?
World economy is asking for more and more Earth’s
resources
Climate changes
Incorrect management of rural area (Reduction, abandon)
future changes which will require professional tools.
Ciro Manzo – [email protected] 4
Future challenge
Unsustanaible society development (in some landfill economic presence
of raw materials!!!)
Requirement of new land, new resources to exploit
Need of spatial planning...
accounting for hazards and risks drivers, triggering factors and effects
Ciro Manzo – [email protected] 5
Natural disasters occur where people lives in conflict with the environment
More geologist less risks…

Italy & Geology
Italy due to itsdistinctive geologicalsetting is forgeologists a interesting area.
in this section in a range of few hundredkilometers there are a series of hazards fromflood to landslide, toearthquake, volcanoes, tsunamis…

Italian situation
It would be basic have geologists working
always and everywhere
But
there is too few awareness of who is a
geologist and what his fields of work are!
Ciro Manzo – [email protected] 12
No country for Young & geologists?
Lots of early career geoscientist are
looking out the window on the job
opportunity landscape
But…

Lots of jobs are stillunavailable!

Our knowledges are used by policy makers like a bulb. It turns on when a disaster happen and turns off when emergency ends.
Emilia Romagna’s earthquake (2012)
Genua flood (2011)
Vajont disaster (1963)
Not all is so dark
Despite lack of founding italian researcher
continue to develop new techniques and
ideas, i.e.:

Study displacement on the ground (subsidence,
earthquake)
Fast response in disaster situation (flooding, earthquake)
Study of soil moisture
Study of marine current
Cosmo Sky-med radar system is one of the last advancement in italian spatial technologies and offer a worldwide opportunity of research!
What are young geologists doing?
Italian Geological Society – Youg Section
from 2004 is active in spreading geological
culture and networking people
Congresses, Workshops, Forums
First Sino-Italian Earth-Sciences
Forum (powerd by YES and SGI)
Ciro Manzo – [email protected] 17
17th ~ 23th of September 2012
Not all is so dark
First Sino-Italian Earth Scientists Forum 2012.
Italian Geological Society (SGI) and ChineseGeological Societies have organized a forumduring 86th National Congress of SGI. Thetarget of the event is the promotion of dialogueand build long-term collaborations betweenItalian and Chinese scientists andprofessionals.

University courses and Professional Job
are too far away

Young Earth Scientist Network
Our aim for the future activities in Italy
Increase the exchange of info and calls for fellowshipand thesis grant
Increase contact with Industry (thesis, hiringopportunity…)
Creating a stronger network which could support and search found and people for research
Be part of a group whose ideas can be take more intoaccount by Policy Makers
Spreading awareness about geological culture!
Go on linking groups of young geologists in Italy
Ciro Manzo – [email protected] 20
Ideas for the future…
We should work on different way:
Increase awareness of geological issue in the society
- offering free workshop in the primary, secondary and high schools! (or organizing school-trips in interestinggeological sites, and doing geoactivities – create ourown volcano)
- Making public discussion about local project ofdevelopment or local risk(Landfill site, infrastructureproject, Volcanic risk!, Water, etc…)
Ciro Manzo – [email protected] 21
More awareness -> more attention by policy makers
Ideas for the future…
Increase education and job training
Increase educational period in foreign Universirty(Erasmus, Socrates, etc…)
Internship contract University and Company agreement
Course for professional qualifying examination
Social Webinar (gis or new geological softwares…)
Spread by site job opportunity
Creation of database of curriculum vitae for young geologists
Ciro Manzo – [email protected] 22
International Training
strong multidisciplinary approach;
use ICT tools and services,
thereby contributing to the creation of a
sustainable learning community in the
subject area concerned. (this is true
expecially for developing countries)
Ciro Manzo – [email protected] 23
International summer schools could be a way to spread
knowledge, where teachers and students coming from
different countries get in contact with different method of
teach and research
International Training
