La Nuit de la Géographie

Description:

First, we will welcome middle school and high school students to introduce them to geography. Some university students from the Geography and Planning bachelor’s degree and the GTDL master’s degree will also be there. These students will organize city walks in Clermont-Ferrand.

After that, we will play small games about how people see and understand territories (including the JRS, Spatial Representation Game) and have a small snack.

After 5 PM, when the students leave, we will welcome the public. At 6 PM, Florence Nussbaum (University of Lyon) will give a conference about “The United States and the Environmental Question” (for the Terminale HGGSP program).
