Earthquake education, Teachers Without Borders

teacherswithoutborders.org:Solmaz facilitates emergency education and inquiry-based science programs in western China for Teachers Without Borders. In 2008, Solmaz developed hands-on earthquake education activities for teachers in China in response to the 2008 Sichuan Earthquake. As a geosciences graduate student at the University of Montana, Solmaz helped to build and extend a high-precision GPS ground station network across Pakistan, Afghanistan, and Tajikistan. Using geodetic observations, she measured deformation rates for major tectonic structures and faults that place Central Asia at great risk for catastrophic earthquakes >>>

Highly impressed with Ms. Mohajer's work and scientific knowledge. Iran definitely needs more people like her. It's good to see her doing such essential work for fellow Farsi speaking countries and earning some much needed brownie points, however small in grand scheme of things, for Iran's badly battered image.

Thanks for posting.
