GLOBE Stars in Mexico
19 March 1998
The GLOBE Program is moving forward in Mexico. In November 1997, Mexico
held their first GLOBE Teacher Training Workshop for 38 participants,
including 9 teachers from the high schools associated with the National
Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM).
The workshop was held at the University's Botanical Gardens,
the
"Ecoguardas" Environmental Education Center and the Xochimilco Ecological
Park.
These sites provided outstanding settings for carrying out the GLOBE
science measurement activities.
Twelve environmental experts from UNAM
research centers and the Ibero-American University (UIA) assisted in the
workshop by addressing each of the areas of GLOBE science.
