C4G brings together 15 major players in Solid Earth Sciences in Portugal, from 6 universities, 2 private associations to 3 government agencies. These agencies correspond to the national authorities for geological services (LNEG – I.P.), for monitoring earthquakes and geomagnetism (IPMA – I.P.) and for the national geodetic network (DGT).
