2023 Volcano Observatories Best Practices Workshop (VOBP5) Pucón, Chile

Observatories need to discuss how best to keep themselves organized, interact with their stakeholder agencies, and keep the public aware of the latest information. This requires a complex system of internal and external communications products. Moreover, how can observatories provide long-term records of their communications in an environment where social media demands rapid, frequent, and minimalistic products? In VOBP5, we intend to invite observatory and non-observatory experts in communications, outreach, social media, logistics, and social science. Participants will share their expertise via posters, talks, panels, and breakout sessions.

VOBP is part of the World Organization of Volcano Observatories (WOVO) within IAVCEI.
