> Dear colleagues,

> 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
> http://www.eurogeography.eu.gridhosted.co.uk/about-2/
>
>
> EUROGEO 2017 will aim to address cross-cutting issues such as:
>
>     How does geographical education respond to needs of society and the
> world around us?
>     Does geographical education give young people the necessary tools they
> need to think spatially?
>     How do new technologies and open access to data help engage youngsters?
>     How should education respond to the ever-increasing importance of
> geographic information?
>
> 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 http://www.eurogeography.eu/
> conference-2017-amsterdam/
>
>
>
> 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.
>
> Topics may include but are not limited to:
>
>     early years geography education
>     geography in primary school
>     high school developments
>     curriculum development and change
>     university level teaching and learning
>     innovation and change
>     the use of new technologies
>     employability and careers
>
>
> 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
