“AAG's Annual Meeting is a source of inspiration for geographers worldwide,” said Rebecca Lave, President of the American Association of Geographers and Associate Dean for Social and Historical Sciences at Indiana University-Bloomington. “I’m proud to have been part of the creative engagements to develop this meeting this year.”
The meeting will host more than 1,000 sessions, panels, workshops, and land engagements on topics along themes established with local Hawaiian thought leaders and AAG’s local institutional partner, the University of Hawai‘i-Mānoa Department of Geography and Environment (GEO):
• 𝗥𝗲𝗰𝗶𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗰𝗮𝗹 𝗦𝗰𝗵𝗼𝗹𝗮𝗿𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗽 - ʻ𝗔ʻ𝗼𝗵𝗲 𝗽𝗮𝘂 𝗸𝗮 ‘𝗶𝗸𝗲 𝗶 𝗸𝗮 𝗵𝗮̄𝗹𝗮𝘂 𝗵𝗼ʻ𝗼𝗸𝗮𝗵𝗶 (“All knowledge is not taught in the same school”), focusing on reciprocal scholarship, a method of inquiry that prioritizes non-extractive research and community-building engagement.

Ya-Qing’s own presentation responds to the cultural perspective of resilience to wind, exploring wind resilience in the landscape on the Penghu Archipelago, Taiwan. She will present the wind Resilience in the landscape of the Penghu Archipelago, the mapping result of her fieldwork on the Penghu islands.
“The content and approach to this year’s AAG Annual Meeting reflects a remarkable range of practice in geography, infused with the desire to better the world,” said Gary Langham, PhD, Executive Director of American Association of Geographers.
