Dear all,
The RGS is currently seeking views for a reply about Geography to
the ESRC's review of all subject areas. The questions are quite
generic (listed below). The comment have to be with the RGS by
22nd January. If anyone has comments, you can either pass them
to me to collate from WGSG or send them direct to Lorraine Craig
at RGS (L.Craig@rgs,org).
Al the best
Fiona

Dear all members of the Research Committee, and Research Groups Chairs and
Secretaries:
The ESRC are conducting a review of all their disciplines, not just
geography. It is important that we present a strong reply to this one.
If any one has any comments that they might wish to add please can you send
them to me at the Society by Thursday 22nd January.
My apologies for so many emails at the present time; we seem to have been
bombarded with folks asking us to send items out. We try and be as
selective as possible, and send only ones that are important.
With all good wishes
Lorraine
Dear All,
I am currently undertaking a small review of Geography Research and the ESRC
- focusing on success rates across the research and training schemes and
views from the academic community.
I would be grateful for any comments you have about
1. ESRC funding of research and traning for geography,
2. Whether the ESRC provision meets the needs of geographers,
3. How we might provide new/better opportunities,
4. What future research and training priorities we should consider for
geography.
All feedback gratefully received.
With best wishes,
Lisa
