GeoResearch Forum
About the Forum
Geo-Research Forum is an initiative by the Department of Geography to create a platform for sharing and exchange of ideas, opportunities and challenges faced by scholars. Lectures and panel discussions are held addressing wide ranging issues from how to publish, the value of editing, conducting field work and methodological questions to new areas of research and opportunities (both within the discipline of geography and cross-disciplinary). The initiative particularly encourages young emerging scholars to present cutting edge research. The forum publishes an annual newsletter and has a strong social media presence with its facebook page having 900 members and where ideas and views are shared and expressed online. The initiative is coordinated by a faculty with the help of research scholars who act as programme, social media and annual newsletter coordinators.
