The Association of American Geographers invites scholars, researchers, and students to attend its 2012 Annual Meeting in New York, NY for the very latest in research and applications in geography, GIScience, and sustainability. The conference will be held from February 24 to February 28 at the Hilton New York.

The AAG Annual Meeting is an interdisciplinary forum open to anyone with an interest in geography and related disciplines. All scholars, researchers, and students are welcome to submit abstracts for papers. The 2012 AAG Annual Meeting will be held much earlier than previous meetings; therefore, presenters will need to submit their abstracts and proposals earlier. Please visit http://www.aag.org/annualmeeting/call_for_papers to register for the meeting and submit an abstract. The Call for Papers will end on September 28, 2011.

The week-long conference is expected to host more than 7,000 geographers from more than 60 countries and feature over 4,000 scientific presentations, posters, workshops, and field trips by leading scholars and researchers. Sessions will be organized around topics and special themes such as GIScience and technologies, cartography, political geography, natural hazards, geography education, climate change, human geography, physical geography, planning and international development, and social justice.

We look forward to seeing you in New York!
