Geography Awareness Week aims to raise awareness about the significance of geography to everyone’s lives and encourage consideration of how we all relate and interact with the environment. Geography is the study of places and how people relate to their environments, touching on things like geology, botany, economics, sociology and demographics. This week was created by National Geographic. To celebrate, organize an event or activity each day this week: hold film screenings with an environmental theme, host a Geography-themed trivia program, invite a guest speaker to share a presentation on a specific topic, or encourage residents to complete a puzzle of a world map.
