At the RGS-IBG 150th anniversary event which I have previously blogged about - back in 1980, there were some interesting connections explored between the RGS and the GA.
As it says in the report of the meeting which is available to read on JSTOR:
A comment from the RGS:
For example, we shall shortly have discussions with the Geographical Association, which represents, as you know, those who teach geography in the classroom, and which enjoys an extremely friendly and mutually valuable relationship with the Royal Geographical Society; we shall be discussing with them a number of issues touching on the contribution which geography can make to pupils' education at school, and I am sure that that exchange of views will be very helpful.
I wonder what will be occurring by the time of the 200th anniversary in 6 years' time?
Hopefully 2025 will see more joint activity between the GA and the RGS.
