The project is a truly multinational and multilateral venture. It involves many different stakeholders working together: the network of geological surveys around the world; the international umbrella organisations of the Commission for the Geological Map of the World (CGMW), International Union of Geological Sciences (IUGS), International Year of Planet Earth (IYPE), International Consortium of Geological Surveys (ICOGS) and United Nations Educational Scientific & Cultural Organisation (UNESCO) and the International Framework of the International Steering Committee for Global Mapping (ISCGM). All these have acknowledged their support for the OneGeology Initiative. It is hoped that we will attract other relevant bodies as the project moves forward.
