Practitioners and researchers in geoscience education embrace ICON; (Integrated, Coordinated, Open science, and Networked) principles and; have a history of using them to create and share educational resources,; to move forward collective priorities, and to learn from one another.; Geoscience education brings substantial expertise in social science; research and its application to building individual and collective; capacity. This can be used to support ICON processes and improve the; coproduction of knowledge between geoscientists and diverse communities.; Geoscience is an important part of the knowledge needed to advance; equity at local to global scales. The geoscience education community has; expanded its own ICON capacity through access to and use of shared; resources and research findings, enhancing data sharing and publication,; and leadership development. We prioritize continued use of ICON; principles to develop effective and inclusive communities that increase; equity in geoscience education and beyond, that support leadership and; full participation of systemically non-dominant groups, and that enable; global discussions and collaborations.
