SUMMARY:Pre-RGS GeogEd session -  Making geography matter in turbulent time
DESCRIPTION:Venue: Hybrid (online and at the Royal Geographic Society\, London) \n\n\n\nIn a period marked by significant uncertainty and rapid change—whether arising from shifting geopolitical relations\, the escalating climate emergency\, the cost‑of‑living crisis\, or the increasingly precarious position of higher education—we find ourselves working and teaching within profoundly turbulent times. Geography\, as a discipline centrally concerned with spatial relationships\, power\, environment\, and society\, is uniquely positioned to engage with these challenges. While there is broad consensus that geography matters\, an enduring question remains: how do we effectively demonstrate its relevance and value to young people\, policymakers\, communities\, and our own institutions? \n\n\n\nThis seminar\, hosted by GeogEd\, provides a timely opportunity to reflect on and critically discuss the ongoing and future relevance of geography in addressing contemporary global and local challenges. The event will also mark the 50th anniversary of the Journal of Geography in Higher Education (JGHE)\, celebrating its longstanding contribution to advancing scholarship\, pedagogy\, and debate in geography education\, and its role in shaping this agenda over the past five decades. \n\n\n\nBringing together colleagues from across the diverse spectrum of geographical research\, teaching\, and practice\, the seminar will create space to explore how we are collectively working to make geography matter—intellectually\, socially\, and institutionally—both now and in the future. The programme will combine a series of short presentations with a participatory workshop\, encouraging dialogue\, exchange of ideas\, and collaborative reflection. \n\n\n\nCall to attend/participate:\n\n\n\nParticipants are invited to submit an abstract for a 10‑minute Lightning Talk to contribute to the afternoon seminar on the theme Making geography matter in turbulent times. These Lightning Talks will form the basis for subsequent discussion and will be followed by a workshop facilitated by Professor David Higgitt\, Editor‑in‑Chief of JGHE. \n\n\n\nColleagues who wish to attend and/or contribute to the seminar (online or in person)are warmly encouraged to complete the Making Geography Matter in Turbulent Times: GeogEd Pre-RGS Seminar Registration – Fill in form by 27th June 2026.

SUMMARY:16th Enhancing Fieldwork Learning Showcase Event
DESCRIPTION:*This event is organised by Enhancing Fieldwork Learning\, supported by the British Ecological Society and not the GeogEd Research Group itself. \n\n\n\nThe 16th Enhancing Fieldwork Learning Showcase Event will be held at the University of Southampton\, 8-9th September 2026 and will focus on the theme of ‘Bridging the Divide‘. \n\n\n\nThe EFL Showcase is an annual event that brings together fieldwork educators from a range of disciplines to share innovations in field teaching and learning with a particular focus on the use of technology.   \n\n\n\nThis year’s broad theme of ‘Bridging the Divide’ could include pedagogic research and scholarship into fieldwork topics such as: \n\n\n\n* Bridging geopolitical divisions through international field experiences* Bridging AI (& big data) and real-world learning* Bridging gaps in staff and student expectations/wants from fieldwork* Bridging route from school to HE to employment* Bridging human vs physical geography* Bridging between field and lab \n\n\n\nWe are accepting abstracts for presentations and field demonstrations: https://forms.gle/puD2sARkKSzVzrxTA. Deadline 5th June. \n\n\n\nRegistration for online and in-person attendance is also open: https://forms.gle/nnefo7F7pLxRNdiS6 \n\n\n\nJoin us for talks\, hands-on workshops\, field-based learning and lots of discussion!
