The Society’s publications form a core part of our mission to advance geographical science and its applications to the challenges facing the world’s people, places and environments.
We have a variety of publications: a scholarly journals portfolio, a book series, reports, guides and our impact and engagement blog, Geography Directions. All our publications are research-led and seek to offer insight that has global applications. In 2021 our publications were accessed over 1,000,000 times, by researchers from every continent.
