The Association of Polar Early Career Scientists (APECS) and the International Glaciological Society (IGS) have recently signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU). Both APECS and IGS share the common goal of working internationally and have already been working together for quite some time.
The International Glaciological Society was founded in 1936 to provide a focus for individuals interested in practical and scientific aspects of snow and ice. The objects of the Society are enshrined in its Constitution and are: to stimulate interest in and encourage research into the scientific and technical problems of snow and ice in all countries; to facilitate and increase the flow of glaciological ideas and information; to publish the Journal of Glaciology, the Annals of Glaciology and ICE (the News Bulletin of the Society) and any other appropriate publications, such as books and monographs and finally to sponsor lectures, field meetings and symposia.

We are looking forward to work closely together and continue our fruitful partnership!
