Geographic Education Town Hall

Geospatial Niagara will be hosting a Geographic Education Town Hall next week to highlight the St John’s Declaration. The declaration is intended to advance geographic education for Canadians and is a initiative that was announced last year at the CAG/RCGS joint meeting.

The town hall looks like a great opportunity for people on either side of the border near Niagara Falls (and of course St Catherines where it will actually take place) to get together to find out what the panelists think about the declaration, geography education, and the geospatial profession. While the declaration is a Canada specific initiative, it mirrors the on-going conversations about spatial literacy you can hear from geographers around the world. If you know of similar conversations that are bringing geography/geospatial education to the streets let us know! We want to know what works best for sharing our love of spatial beyond those already sitting in the pews, so to speak.

    Thanks for posting this Jesse, much appreciated. Anytime we can get cross boarder collaboration happening, especially between Western New York and Niagara, that’s a good thing.

    Cheers,
