April 8th - 10th is the date of the 2021 GA Conference.
Unfortunately it will be online rather than face to face once again, but we were prepared for that this time round.
The theme, chosen by President Susan Pike is an important one for our current times: Compassionate Geographies.
Compassionate GeographiesIt gives me great pleasure to announce the theme of the GA Conference for 2021: Compassionate geographies. Geographers are compassionate about the planet and all who inhabit it. The conference theme also encompasses all the GA stands for – compassion in supporting and challenging geographical learning, with a view to a better understanding of the world and its people. Compassion works at numerous levels across a high-quality geography education:
The geography education community has compassion for all its members. Participating in this community, through support and collaboration, ensures every member of the community can find their professional voice.
Our community cares greatly about the quality of geography education for young people. We care about the accuracy of the learning we share with them and each other, the quality of our teaching and more.
Conference 2021 will be an opportunity to celebrate and meet to share our compassion to excite and inspire our learners in geography.
Dr Susan Pike
