Join the GeogEd Community

We are always keen to welcome new members to the GeogEd Research Group.

Member benefits

  • Formal recognition of participation in our activities
  • Access to the GeogEd JISC Mailing list where updates, information relating to the group and opportunities to get involved are shared.
  • The opportunity to stand for election to vacant Committee positions (although it should be noted that at least 50% of the Committee must be RGS Members or Fellows).
  • The opportunity to submit proposals for GeogEd sponsored sessions at the RGS-IBG Annual International Conference.

How to Join

Current RGS members

You can add GeogEd membership to your existing RGS membership free of charge (and you can join as many Research Groups as you wish). You can do this by emailing rhed@rgs.org and asking for GeogEd to be added to your records. Funding from the RGS-IBG each year is determined by the number of current RGS Members/Fellows who are also members of GeogEd. It is therefore in the interests of the group to join GeogEd via this route if possible.

Not an RGS member?

Please email the GeogEd Secretary (west@uwe.ac.uk) with your name, email address for the mailing list, and institution/college/school. While we do welcome non-RGS members joining this RGS GeogEd Research Group, we do wish to promote the benefits of joining the RGS as a member, both for the individual and GeogEd (see above).

If you have any questions about GeogEd Membership please do not hesitate to get in touch with the Secretary (harry.west@uwe.ac.uk).

Join the GeogEd JISCMAIL list here.   Archives of the mailing list and other information about the list are available on the JISCMAIL website.
