2nd. Mexican Night of Geography, Nature and Society

Description:
For 2nd year, our event will allow attendees to become familiar with geographic concepts and learn how geography is currently part of our daily lives. We will make known in a practical and interactive way the biogeographical works that we carry out in the academy with the help of geographic tools available to the general public, based on Citizen Science, teaching their use to the attendees. We will do a short tour to use these tools and we will talk about the species of flora and fauna that we observed during the event. All this in a Mexican children’s party atmosphere.

Main objectives:

That the attendees learn about the biogeographic work that we do at the UAT with the help of geographic tools available to the general public. That the public becomes familiar with geographic concepts and how geography is part of our lives. That some attendees join in doing Citizen Science based on geographic records. That the attending children become interested in geographical sciences in a fun and interactive way.
