Geography

At local, national and international level, the main challenges facing the world in the 21st century are related to geography.

The impacts of climate change in the coming decades on countries and regions will be significant.

Adapting to flash flooding and drought; the security of water, food and energy supplies; and population growth, migration, loss of biodiversity and the spread of disease, are just some of the challenges we face.

It means geographers are in increasing demand as their skills are required to address the environmental, economic and societal challenges of the future.
