International Year of Planet Earth Global, UNESCO, Paris, 12th and 13th February 2008
OneGeology was given centre stage at the Global Launch Event of IYPE in Paris. The event attracted international dignitaries, ambassadors and senior scientists from around the world and OneGeology was included in the speeches of many of these, including the Director General of UNESCO. We had a OneGeology booth there which attracted much interest and helped in our mission to raise awareness around the world. As a result participation in OneGeology continues to grow. OneGeology was always in demand and a several TV interviews were given, including one on Italian national TV.
