Core offering

Science for Georgia delivers a portfolio of public science communication programs centered on live community events (Georgia Science Junction talks, Jazz Hands science comedy, Climate Survival Training workshops, Sips of Science socials), an annual statewide Environmental Justice and Climate Protection Conference, professional development trainings (SciComm Academy, Humor Me!), a Data for Georgia initiative connecting data scientists with environmental justice communities, and a free Knowledge Base and YouTube educational content library. Its offerings are supported by donations, sponsorships, grants, and modest event ticket revenue, all directed at improving public understanding of science and advocating for evidence-based policy in Georgia.

Product overview

Science for Georgia is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization whose offering consists entirely of public programs and services — it does not produce a software product. Its portfolio centers on science communication and public engagement, comprising live event series (Georgia Science Junction talks, Climate Survival Training workshops, Jazz Hands science comedy shows, Sips of Science socials), an annual Environmental Justice and Climate Protection Conference, a Data for Georgia initiative linking health and environmental data with communities, SciComm Academy and Humor Me! professional development trainings, a monthly South River water testing community science program, a Knowledge Base/Blog with science articles and explainers, and student internship and University Ambassador programs. These programs collectively serve to improve communication between scientists and the public, increase public engagement with science, and advocate for evidence-based public policy in Georgia.

Expansion highlights5 records

Direct peers

• 500 Women Scientists: Grassroots nonprofit building communities of scientists and allies to improve science access and communication. Comparable chapter-based, volunteer-supported model aimed at public engagement and equity in science.
• Climate Central: Nonprofit that researches and communicates climate science to the public and journalists. Similar evidence-based, science-communication-first model and comparable use of media partnerships; differs in being climate-only and national in scope.
• COMPASS: Nonprofit dedicated to training scientists to communicate effectively with non-technical audiences and policymakers. Strong overlap with Sci4Ga's SciComm Academy, Humor Me! and Georgia Science Junction offerings, though COMPASS serves a national instead of state-bound audience.
• March for Science: Advocacy movement for evidence-based policymaking and public science engagement with local chapters that stage events. Sci4Ga participated in the 2019 March for Science; highly comparable mission and event-led engagement model.
• Center for Sustainable Communities: Atlanta-based environmental nonprofit that co-hosts Sci4Ga's annual EJ&CP conference and works on environmental health and equity issues in Georgia. Direct overlap on event programming and Georgia environmental justice advocacy.
• Dogwood Alliance: Southern environmental advocacy nonprofit that co-founded the EJ&CP conference with Sci4Ga. Directly comparable regional advocacy partner with overlapping climate and environmental justice programming in the Southeast.

Broad incumbents

• The Conversation US: Nonprofit media outlet that publishes explanatory articles written by academics for a public audience. Closely matches Sci4Ga's Knowledge Base/Blog and Ask A Scientist content model, though delivered as editorial product rather than live events.
• Union of Concerned Scientists: National nonprofit that mobilizes scientists for evidence-based policy advocacy and produces technical analyses on energy, climate, and security issues. Directly comparable mission to Sci4Ga's science-meets-policy advocacy, but operates at national scale across many science domains rather than being Georgia-specific.
• Science Friday: Public radio program and digital platform dedicated to making science engaging and accessible. Directly comparable mission of turning complex science into public-friendly content; much larger national audience and broadcast distribution.
• National Center for Science Education: Nonprofit focused on defending the teaching of evolution and climate science and supporting public engagement with science. Comparable advocacy and education mission; larger and national, with deeper programmatic depth in science-policy defense than Sci4Ga.
