The EUROGEO 2017 Conference is organised in Amsterdam, The Netherlands on 2-3 March 2017.

Geographical education is facing many challenges at schools and in higher education. The purpose of EUROGEO 2017 is to examine some of these issues and their possible responses.

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?
