International Lithosphere Program (ILP) has since 1980 been initiating major international, multidisciplinary research programmes to elucidate the nature, dynamics, origin and evolution of the lithosphere. ILP has taken initiative to more than 70 programmes within its four research themes: (1) Geoscience of Global Change, (2) Contemporary Dynamics and Deep Processes, (3) Continental Lithosphere and (4) Oceanic Lithosphere. Example programmes initiated by ILP include World Stress Map, Global Strain Rate Map, Global Seismic Hazard Assessment Map, Seismic Hazards and Megacities, Global Impact project, International Continental Drilling Program (ICDP), and a series of Global Geoscience Transects and programmes. Present programmes focus on integrated mapping of lithosphere physical parameters, lithosphere dynamics including the fate of subducted lithosphere and deformation of continental lithosphere, response of the lithosphere to surface processes including changes in climate and erosion/deposition dynamics, mineral resources, and seismic risk. ILP promotes high class science in combination with community services through the Evgueni Burov medal for mid-career scientists and the Flinn-Hart Award for outstanding early-career scientists, which are awarded during the UGU annual meeting. The activities of ILP seeks to achieve a balance between: addressing societal needs in regard to e.g. natural catastrophes, resource exploration and environmental protection; and satisfying scientific curiosity in regard to global and regional processes affecting the lithosphere.

ILP will present major achievements during the past 40 years through a series of invited talks at the union session. In a associated session, we invite all scientists to present their recent research on lithosphere formation, structure and evolution. We particularly invite the teams of the ILP task forces and coordinating committees to present new results of their international and multidisciplinary cooperation networks.

Confirmed invited speaker: Sierd Cloetingh about the history of ILP
