Past Global Changes (PAGES) was founded in 1991 and supported by the US and Swiss National Science Foundations as a core project of the now defunct International Geosphere-Biosphere Programme (IGBP) until 2015. In 2016, PAGES became a Global Research Project of Future Earth, as well as a formal scientific partner of the World Climate Research Programme (WCRP), and is now supported by the US National Science Foundation and the Swiss Academy of Sciences. PAGES’ scope of interest includes the physical climate system, biogeochemical cycles, ecosystem processes, biodiversity, and human dimensions, on different time scales - from the Pliocene to the recent past. It is open and inclusive to all scientists interested in past global changes. Over time, PAGES has evolved to address emerging challenges and scientific themes, with resultant changes in structure and scope. But the main objectives remain unchanged, and, after 25-years, PAGES is well-established and continues to be successful in its mission to catalyze international cooperation and foster high-quality science.
