Geography Awareness Week 2025
Hope keeps our sights on the horizon of possibility—or perhaps, more aptly, on the horizons of possibility, multiple and fluid, for there is no terminus to a politics of hope, and no geographic fixity to its imagined spaces.”
—Cindi Katz, “Topographies of Hope”
NOVEMBER 17-21
Making Spaces of Possibility
Possibility is … a footstep, a hand outstretched, a horizon glimpsed, a purpose spoken. Possibility is grasping the past and present of a place, and acting to move it into a positive future.
Geographers recognize and realize possibilities every day in their work, using their training to spot spatial patterns, convey information in vivid terms, and open up what we can know about places—and what we can believe and plan for them. Whether by exploring conservation, community, or the grand geopolitical stage, geographers are there to ask questions, harness ideas, and map the possible.
Take part in National Geography Awareness Week: Making Spaces of Possibility, and help AAG tell the world about how geographers are broadening and deepening our sense of the possible. Use our map to find out about GeoWeek events and happenings where you are, and all over the world.
