This week marks Geography Awareness Week, a time to celebrate the vital role geography plays in understanding our world. Geography shapes everything from global relations and agricultural production to urban planning, economic development, and risk management. Geography Awareness Week invites students, educators, and professionals to explore the interconnectedness of people, places, and environments, fostering spatial literacy to tackle real-world challenges. By emphasizing the importance of geography education, it deepens our appreciation for the planet and empowers us to make informed decisions for a sustainable future. Let’s celebrate geography and make spatial literacy a priority!
