The EGU Committee on Education has organised Geosciences Information for Teachers (GIFT) workshops since 2003. These are normally two-and-a-half-day teacher enhancement workshops held in conjunction with EGU's annual General Assembly. There, selected top-level scientists working in the Earth sciences offer the invited teachers talks centred on a different theme every year. Teachers are also provided with teaching strategies and activities related to the theme. For the past few years, the EGU has also organised GIFT workshops at different locations worldwide.

This year the workshop was organised online. The workshop will be joined by 190 participants from 30 countries and different time zones around the world, who have all pre-registered and been accepted.The coordinator of the project "Groundwater: learn to preserve the European underground environment" led 2 practical sessions:
