Geography and Global Understanding - Connecting the Sciences

Geography bridging the physical and human sciences deals with places, people and cultures. It explores international issues ranging from physical, urban and rural environments, and their evolution, to climate, pollution, development and political-economy. Key issues are how these features are interconnected, forming patterns and processes impacting on present and future generations. The role of geo-technologies and geoinformation would seem to be of paramount importance. By its nature Geography continues to connect the physical, human and technological sciences with GIS enhancing research, economic development and production.

A special issue of the European Journal of Geography is planned on the conference theme.
