GA Conference 2023 - Geo Live

Preparations are now in the final changes for the forthcoming GA Conference 2023.

The Geo LIVE event for students is also available once again.

This year's event is called PLACE Stories and has been curated by Denise Freeman and Alastair Owens.

2023 Programme: Place stories

9.30 - 10.00 - Registration

10.10 - Keynote lecture: Shabna Begum

11.30 - 12.15 - Introduction to the day and the Voices Project

Focusing on space, place and identity, students explore where groups have felt in place/out of place, exploring similarities and differences; as well as critically questioning why these patterns exist.

12.15 - 12.45 - Lunch on site (students bring their own lunch).

12.45 - 2.00 - Fieldwork with Duncan Hawley - Stories in Urban Stonework

Going outside, students join Duncan to look at the rock cycle in an urban environment and consider dynamic changes in the landscape and a changing world.

2.00 - Part two of the voices project

Engaging with recordings from the Voices Project, students explore how to collect their own oral geographies and how they could be used in the NEA, at school, or in the future.

3.30 pm End
