Seven female researchers will present their work at a day-long conference series at the Universidad Autónoma de Baja California Sur (UABCS) in La Paz on Monday, April 27. The event begins at 9 a.m. in the Auditorio de Ciencias del Mar y de la Tierra on the university campus, located along the Carretera al Sur at kilometer 5.5.
Organized under the theme “Seven Scientists, One Mission: Understand and Care for Mother Earth,” the conference marks International Earth Day with presentations on current environmental challenges. The seven researchers will share findings and analysis tied to this year’s global Earth Day theme, “Our Power, Our Planet.”
Free Zoom Access for Remote Attendees
The entire conference series will also be streamed live on Zoom, making it accessible to anyone in Baja California Sur or beyond. The university has not yet published the specific Zoom link, so attendees should check the UABCS social media pages or the university’s website for details before Monday morning.
UABCS organized the event to promote scientific outreach while spotlighting the role of women in generating environmental knowledge. The conference aims to connect researchers with the broader public on topics including marine science, climate, and sustainability.
What to Know Before Attending
The UABCS campus sits on the southern edge of La Paz, roughly a 10-minute drive from the malecón. The Auditorio de Ciencias del Mar y de la Tierra is part of the university’s earth and marine sciences departments, which offer programs in geology, water science, and environmental geology. Admission to the conference is free for both in-person and virtual participants.
The event runs throughout the day starting at 9 a.m., though the university has not released a detailed schedule listing individual presentation times or speaker names. Those interested in specific topics should plan to arrive early or connect via Zoom at the start.
