<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt"><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:black">Dear colleagues,<br>
<br>
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:black">Professor Karl Donert (President EUROGEO and Director European Centre of Excellence, digital-earth.eu University of Salzburg, Austria) has kindly invited me to deliver a keynote presentation at EUROGEO
2017 in Amsterdam on 2-3 March 2017. EUROGEO promotes the European dimension in geographical education as a contribution towards the development of European citizenship. By doing so, EUROGEO encourages the development of a greater European awareness through
the medium of geography and increases mutual knowledge and understanding of Europe. Details at
<a href="http://www.eurogeography.eu.gridhosted.co.uk/about-2/" id="LPlnk480085">
http://www.eurogeography.eu.gridhosted.co.uk/about-2/</a> <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt"><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:black"><br>
<br>
EUROGEO 2017 will aim to address cross-cutting issues such as:<br>
<br>
How does geographical education respond to needs of society and the world around us?<br>
Does geographical education give young people the necessary tools they need to think spatially?<br>
How do new technologies and open access to data help engage youngsters?<br>
How should education respond to the ever-increasing importance of geographic information?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:black">I will aim to actively share GeoForAll ideas at the event and welcome colleagues to proactively contribute to these important discussions.You can find details of the conference at
<a href="http://www.eurogeography.eu/conference-2017-amsterdam/" id="LPlnk281473">

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt"><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:black"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:black">This is really good opportunity for us to proactively contribute to these important discussions. Ela from Poland and some of our GeoForAll colleagues are actively involved in EUROGEO, so this is
a good opportunity for us to further expand collaborations.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt"><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:black"><br>
Topics may include but are not limited to:<br>
<br>
early years geography education<br>
geography in primary school<br>
high school developments<br>
curriculum development and change<br>
university level teaching and learning<br>
innovation and change<br>
the use of new technologies<br>
employability and careers<br>
<br>
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:black">Karl also put forward an excellent idea for compiling a book to record "Geo for All" developments and initiatives. If fact , our colleagues in various labs are contributing to each of the topics
above from early year geography education to innovation and change, so it will be great to have a book compiled with all the global inputs. I would like to welcome inputs from the wider community for this. We will need one lead person from GeoForAll to lead
this book project. Please let me or Karl (cc in) know if you are interested.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:black"><br>
Best wishes,<br>
