    <font size="5" face="Arial">What is geography?</font>


    <font size="2" face="Arial">Geography is the study of Earth’s landscapes, peoples, places and environments. It is, quite simply, about the world in which we live.</font>


    <font size="2" face="Arial">Geography is unique in bridging the social sciences (human geography) with the natural sciences (physical geography). Human geography concerns the understanding of the dynamics of cultures, societies and economies, and physical geography concerns the understanding of the dynamics of physical landscapes and the environment.</font>


    <font size="2" face="Arial">Geography puts this understanding of social and physical processes within the context of places and regions - recognising the great differences in cultures, political systems, economies, landscapes and environments across the world, and the links between them. Understanding the causes of differences and inequalities between places and social groups underlie much of the newer developments in human geography.</font>


    <font size="2" face="Arial">Geography provides an ideal framework for relating other fields of knowledge. It is not surprising that those trained as geographers often contribute substantially to the applied management of resources and environments.</font>


    <font size="2" face="Arial">Geography is, in the broadest sense, an education for life and for living. Learning through geography – whether gained through formal learning or experientially through travel, fieldwork and expeditions – helps us all to be more socially and environmentally sensitive, informed and responsible citizens and employees.</font>
