n this issue of the Geoscience and Remote Sensing
Society (GRSS) Magazine, we're happy to report on
the IGARSS 2015 Women's Luncheon, our new URL on
the GRSS webpage and information on how you can
submit a nomination to obtain partially subsidized
travel to the 2016 IEEE Women In Engineering (WIE)
International Leadership Conference (ILC).
Let's begin with the successful Luncheon held at
IGARSS 2015 in Milan, Italy. This was our fourth annual
women's event at IGARSS. More than 40 women attend
the luncheon. After the buffet luncheon, our keynote
speaker, Prof. Marina Ruggieri presented us with a bit
about networking as well as a tutorial on IEEE Division
IX's new initiatives. With regards to networking she
reminded us that information is more than data and
that we should use what we know and present it in a
broader environment.
We all introduced ourselves to allow for connections
to be made. Also, Negar Eshan from NASA Goddard
gave a short address on some of the points she learned
from her GRSS sponsored travel to the second annual
IEEE WIE International Leadership Conference in San

Jose, CA in spring 2015. Here is what Nkeiruka Onyia
from the United Kingdom had to say about the luncheon "The Women in Geosciences Luncheon was an
explosive experience for me. Of course I expected the
session to be an eye opener, beyond the networking,
but it provided me with deep insights into the opportunities that abound for women in geosciences and how
our pacesetters have surmounted arduous hurdles to
create these opportunities. Kudos to these super ladies
in geosciences."
As a second topic for this month's column, we're very
pleased to let you know that you can find all information about GRSS women's activities at the URL http://
www.grss-ieee.org under the
community tab with the link to

you need to know about WIE and GRSS.
