Conferences

GeoTenerife organises an annual conference on subjects of scientific interest, bringing experts to the UK from the Canary Islands. They are a great opportunity to learn more about our field trip destination, and to get to know some of the world-class experts we work with on the island.

If you are thinking of coming to Tenerife for a field trip, or have been coming for years but would like GeoTenerife to help with future trips, our conferences are a great place to meet us all and see what we do, and how we can help you.

 Subjects covered have included:

  • Volcanoes of the Canaries
  • An introduction to the Canary Islands’ extraordinary and unique biodiversity
  • Bioclimatic solutions for the 21st century
  • Africa Tree project, a joint venture to help the continent’s poorest communities
  • Tenerife’s geothermal potential
  • Bottling water from clouds

Attendance at our conferences is strictly by invitation only.

If you are a teacher, professor or academic with an interest in coming to Tenerife (or one of the other Canary Islands) and would like to be added to the guest list, please contact enquiries@geotenerife.com.
