Give Geography its Place' Campaign

David Rayner and Daniel Raven-Ellison have devoted a lot of their time this year to raising the status of Geography through their ‘Give Geography its Place’ (GGiP) Campaign. The GGiP Campaign has two key aims:

1. To raise the profile of Geography as an academic subject in all forms of the media (newspapers, magazines, the internet, TV, radio, advertising, etc).
2. To increase awareness of the importance of Geography and the vital role that it plays in schools, colleges and universities in preparing young people for life in the 21st century.

The campaign’s website can found at:
