[igrav-steering] Fwd: [igrav-discuss] Collaboration with GWECS

[Fazal Kareem]

Hi all,

It is not desirable to delay a reply to this email, but I don't know who is
supposed to take a decision on this. I request your two cents on this
collaboration with GWECS they are proposing; after we reach a consensus, we
can give a reply to them. As of now, I will send them an email of
acknowledgment and let them know that we will get back to them as soon as
possible.

I suggest that we meet with them if possible.

Cheers,
Fazal
IGrav Comms Co-Chair

Hi Joey,

Thanks for your support! Actually, I haven’t heard back from anyone yet,
but I’m looking forward to! May be you’d know whom I could write directly
about this?

Cheers,
Mikhail

Hi Mikhail,

Did you get a response from IGrav? Coordination with GWECS is a great idea,
so I hope you are in touch with the active IGrav leaders.

         thanks,

                       Joey

Dear IGRAV team,

My name is Mikhail Korobko, I’m a member of the GWECS office for media and
outreach. GWECS (https://gwecs.org/
<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/gwecs.org/__;!!K-Hz7m0Vt54!nt76vO21bq1_LmKNJJfo0AY2OLCZU9EBAD_qP09TyYdGPPM_HkhYES4-ZYSr1LCbakex6MTbPT52_92Rz0diRSK-RpgQ1Q$>)
is the organisation for early career scientists, working in GW
astrophysics. Its functions are similar to those of e.g. LAAC or LECS &
VECS. It’s designed to be an “umbrella” for these communities, and also
include ECSs from outside the main collaborations. GWECS is very new: we’ve
just started this summer.

The scope of what we’re doing is rather broad: e.g. we organised a
scientific workshop for ECSs, recently the job fair and now running the
seminars on mental health. Among these, we also plan for some outreach
work, and that’s where I’m coming to you.

I understand that IGrav has somewhat similar concept in term of addressing
the global GW community, but with a focus on the outreach in general. We
feel like it wouldn’t make sense for us to run this completely
independently, and that both groups could benefit from each other. We’re
still defining what exactly would be our scope in the outreach, and would
be happy to communicate with you.

May be, if you have some regular meetings, we could present GWECS briefly
and discuss the potential points for collaboration? I would of course be
happy to tell you more about GWECS.

Best,
Mikhail
