The European Geography Association (EGEA) is an association encouraging European students to engage with geography through hands-on learning experiences.[1] EGEA provides exchange programs and excursions to facilitate connection between European students and others from across the globe.[2]
EGEA also provide publications in partnership with EuroGeography.[3] They operate in 32 European nations and have over 3,000 active participants.[4]
The aims of EGEA are to offer personal development opportunities to young geographers across Europe, and enable them to fulfill their potential as young scientists.[5] EGEA provides complementary and alternative learning opportunities, beyond formal education of geography.[citation needed] This is done by encouraging and enabling involvement in intercultural interaction, as well as by development of academic, scientific, cultural and professional activities intended for young geographers on terms of equality, diversity and non-discrimination. EGEA actively contributes towards the promotion of geography through its network capabilities and through strategic partnerships, with the ultimate goal to strengthen geography’s place in members’ local communities.[citation needed]
