About the Royal Scottish Geographical Society
The Royal Scottish Geographical Society (RSGS) was founded in 1884 and is based in Perth. The Society has a membership of 2500 and aims to advance the understanding of geography world-wide by supporting education, research, expeditions, through its journal (the Scottish Geographical Journal) and its newsletter (GeogScot).
The RSGS provides a uniquely Scottish flavour, with particular interests in working with Scottish Universities and educators in developing the discipline world-wide.
