    Earth Science Review Board Case Review Form

    The Earth Science Review Board Case Review Form is used to evaluate humanitarian cases by providing a summary of the case’s objectives, innovations, and use of Earth science. Reviewers assess strengths, areas for improvement, and recommend tools or resources that could enhance the case’s approach. Additionally, the form invites suggestions for potential partnerships, with an emphasis on specific organizations or sectors that could help improve the case’s impact. Reviewers are also asked if they would like their contact information shared for potential follow-ups.
