EUROCLIO would like to inform you on the upcoming Annual Conference of our partner EUROGEO that will be held on the 1st and 2nd of June 2012. This year the event will take place in Dublin, Ireland. An optional study visit to the Boyne Valley will take place on the 3rd of June. We also received to following additional information from mr. Donert of EUROGEO:
Conference theme: "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.
Papers/presentations/workshops are welcome from all areas of Geography and connected disciplines, group sessions can be arranged.
Deadline for abstracts May 1st 2012.
A special issue of the European Journal of Geography is planned on the conference theme.
We look forward to welcoming you there.
Karl Donert,
President EUROGEO
