The 7th PAGES OSM will take place in Shanghai, China, and online, from 21–24 May 2025.
The PAGES Open Science Meeting (OSM) is a PAGES flagship event held approximately every four years and is a much anticipated fixture on the paleoscience calendar.
Directly before the OSM, PAGES will conduct the 5th PAGES Young Scientists Meeting (YSM) from 19-20 May 2025.
Description
The 7th OSM and 5th YSM meetings will focus on “the Earth System Changes from the Past towards the Future”. This conference aims to promote interdisciplinary scientific exchange and international collaboration, and to strengthen the connections between PAGES communities.
By integrating various spheres of the Earth's system, this conference will illustrate the changes in the key components of the Earth's surface system (air, water, ice, land, life, society, etc.) across timescales, with the ultimate goal of improving predictions for future climate and environment.

Call for Sessions
The Scientific Program Committee (SPC) invites you to take an active part in organizing the scientific program of the conference. The program will be comprised of plenary, parallel and poster sessions.
The plenary sessions will host keynote talks intended to stimulate discussions on the role of past global change science by providing information about strategies for a sustainable world, on the engagement of stakeholders in active cutting-edge research, and on the added value of interdisciplinary approaches. The parallel and associated poster sessions will accommodate top-level, ongoing research.
Up to five sessions will be run in parallel at the OSM, allowing accommodation for a maximum of 40 sessions.
Please send proposals to pages@pages.unibe.ch and include a provisional title, potential conveners, and a brief description of the session.
