IYGU日本 関係者各位

IYGUにつきましては大変お世話になっています。
ようやく、IYGUの地域活動センターのサイトをオープンできましたので、お知らせいたします。
IYGU と広島大学で検索いただきますと、トップに出てきますので、簡単です。

これから、このサイトを使って、ハブとしての活動を拡大していきたいと思いますので、よろしくお願いします。
このサイトから協賛、後援等の行事に関する申込書が簡単にダウンロードできますので、ご提案をよろしくお願いします。
日本の各地で、IYGUの活動が展開しますよう、ご支援をお願いします。

広島大学でもたおやかプログラム、総合博物館などと連携しながら、ボトムアップの独自の活動を展開することを考えています。

今週末には、タイミング良く、リーディングプログラムの「多文化共生社会」6大学交流会が「多文化×異分野が拓く新たな知」をテーマに広島大学で開催されます。
詳細は、上記サイトで得られますので、ご確認いただければ幸いです。

The world of cartography and GIS comes to Washington, DC, July 2 to 7, 2017 for the 28th International Cartographic Conference (ICC) of the International Cartographic Association. This call is your opportunity to submit your paper or poster abstract and join other cartographers and geographic information scientists from across the globe. Participate and see the latest innovations and developments in mapping techniques, technological advancements, and current research in cartography and GIScience—conference themes are listed below. The ICC is a unique experience to exchange ideas and encourage collaboration with colleagues from academia, government and industry. This event is a once in a generation opportunity in Washington, D.C., and will not be in the United States again for many years.

Submissions
 Submissions are due October 26, 2016.
 There are two submission tracks: 1) a full paper that includes a short abstract, or 2) a long abstract only for presentation.
There are two presentation formats: an oral paper or a poster.
A collection of refereed conference papers will be published in a Springer book. These full papers are due October 26, 2016.
Long abstracts will be refereed to decide acceptance of presentations. Authors who submit a long abstract have the option to submit a paper for the online conference proceedings. These papers, which will not be refereed, are due later.
After the conference, selected papers will also be invited for submission to the official ICA journals: The International Journal of Cartography, Cartography and Geographic Information Science, Cartographica, and The Cartographic Journal.

IGU Commissions Excellence Award 2015 awarded to Commission on Geographical Education

The IGU Executive Committee has awarded the IGU Commissions Excellence Award to the Co
mmission on Geographical Education. The Commission on Geographical Education, jointly 
chaired by Professor Joop van der Schee (University of Amsterdam) and John Lidstone (Q
ueensland University of Technology)  has been consistently very active and highly prod
uctive. The Commission is exceptionally successful in disseminating geographical knowl
edge and skills to a broad audience beyond the academic community and in educating fut
ure generations of geographers. The signing of the new Declaration on research in Geog
raphical Education and the development of a new Charter on Geography Education in coll
aboration with EUGEO and EUROGEO are major outcomes of the Commission’s work in 2015.

This is the third year of the IGU Commission Excellence Award, previous winners were
the Commissions on Gender (2013) and Political Geography (2014).  The award includes
a prize of US$2500 towards Commission activities and an opportunity to present a
keynote address at a future IGU Conference or Congress.

The IGU Commission Excellence Award selection committee is chaired by Vice-President
Professor Joos Droogleever-Fortuijn
