Our Strategy aims to provide a clear statement of where the Society is heading and its priorities in terms of actions.
We hold a passionate belief in the value of understanding our world - past, present and future. The overarching rationale behind our Strategy is to strengthen and share that understanding for the benefit of all.


The current Strategic Plan 2006 to 2010, extended to include 2011, commits to the core objectives to promote:
- Geographical research and advance geography, nationally and internationally as a leading discipline enhancing a shared understanding of our interdependent world
- Benefits of geographical learning and skills, educating people of all ages for life as local and global citizens in a rapidly changing world
- Wider understanding, relevance and enjoyment of geography, recognising the public's growing thirst for knowledge about the world
- Recognition and understanding of the relevance of geography and geographical information to policy, placing geography firmly in the debates about the future of places, environments and communities
- The Society's membership and staff, supporting its charitable activities and reinforcing the importance of professional standards in geographical knowledge and skills
- A sound growing financial basis to enable the implementation of the Society's strategy in support of geography
