GEOGRAPHY AWARENESS WEEK


GeoWeek (Geography Awareness Week) takes place on the third week in November each year. The purpose of GeoWeek is to highlight the importance of geographical knowledge for understanding the world around us and addressing contemporary social, political and environmental issues. ​We encouraged geographers of all ages from across island to share their GeoWeek activities by emailing us at ​gsi.procomms@gmail.com​
