  • 2020 Annual Report Wow - This Has Been Quite a Year
    2020 Annual Report Wow - this has been quite a year. Our flagship event, the Atlanta Science Festival, was cancelled days after beginning. In the months that have followed, we’ve been living in a strange new reality - considering what the future holds for an organization like ours that relies so much on interaction with the public. One thing we know for sure, however, is that this time period is only heightening the importance of science for our livelihoods, crystallizing the need for the work we do. We are excited to continue thinking creatively about how to share amazing science with the Atlanta metro region, how to inspire people - young and old - to fall in love with science, and how to make sure that everyone has equitable access to science learning opportunities. While coronavirus and social justice are most present on our minds these days, building this annual report was a much needed opportunity to reflect back on the good work Science ATL has done in the community over the past year before our world turned upside down. We worked with an incredible new cohort of Georgia Chief Science Officers, we nerded out on best practices in science communication with our latest Science ATL Communication Fellows, we held some really spectacular public science events, and strengthened collaborations and CONTENTS friendships with many new and old partners also Letter from Directors.....................p 2 trying to do good in the city.

HR 589 acknowledges that women in the United States are more likely to die from childbirth or pregnancy-related causes than women in other high-income countries, and furthermore, Georgia is among the top 10 states with the highest maternal death rate. The resolution also recognizes that maternal deaths are a serious public health concern and have tremendous family and social impacts that affect diverse populations. HR 589 acknowledges that the Georgia Maternal Mortality Review Committee has reviewed three years of maternal death data in the state, and the data suggests that 60 percent of these deaths were preventable. Continued review of maternal deaths is recommended to understand the trends in the data, and there is a need to develop strategies and institute systemic changes to decrease and prevent maternal deaths in Georgia. House Resolution 589 provides for the membership of the committee, consisting of seven members of the House of Representatives, a minimum of two of whom shall be African American female legislators, and two members of the Georgia Maternal Mortality Review Committee appointed by the speaker of the House of Representatives.
