The IAEG is an international scientific association with more than 5,200 associated members and 59 National Groups. Engineering Geology is the science devoted to the investigation, study and solution of the engineering and environmental problems, which may arise as the result of the interaction between geology and the works and human activities of man as well as to the prediction of and the development of measures for prevention or remediation of geological hazards.

Alexander Strom, a prominent scientist on large landslides and members of IAEG start this series with the first of two excellent presentations. Author: Alexander Strom Title: Controversial issues of large-scale bedrock landslides identification Affiliations / Agreements IAEG and IAPG have signed an agreement for cooperation (25 March 2016) The aim of the agreement is to promote a co-ordinated policy for promoting initiatives and events discussing the ethical, social and cultural implications of engineering geology and favouring the adoption of ethical standards in the research and practice of geoscience community in order to better serving the Society. The International Association for Promoting Geoethics (IAPG) is a multidisciplinary, scientific community and aims at creating awareness about application of ethical principles to theoretical and practical aspects of Geosciences. The IAPG is affiliated to the IUGS - International Union of Geological Sciences, AGI - American Geosciences Institute, GSA - Geological Society of America and GSL - Geological Society of London, GIRAF
