2024 WDCAG Symposium

​

The 65th Symposium of the Western Division of the Canadian Association of Geographers (WDCAG) will be hosted by the Geography and Earth & Environmental Science Department at Okanagan College (OC) in Kelowna, BC March 15-16, 2024. The theme of this meeting will be ‘Relevance’.

​

Relevance is what makes geography powerful. Geographers are in important positions in government, business, and the community. We have insights that recognize challenges others don’t, and we provide solutions. We understand why solutions that work in one place won’t work in another. We make connections and see the big picture.

 

The theme of the 2024 WDCAG conference is relevance. We invite participants to reflect on how your work is relevant, whether to society, a community, a government department, an employer, or to your own development.

​

Geographers from all fields of geography and related disciplines are invited to attend. Some papers will be published in Western Geography.
