Contemporary Issues in Participatory Geography: event recordings

We are pleased to share the recordings for the Participatory Geographies Research Group (PYGYRG) online event – Contemporary Issues in Participatory Geography: Challenges, Opportunities, and New Directions.

The event was a success with over 200 registered and between 40-50 participants in the variety of sessions.

There are two video recordings for the event which you can view and download via the link below – one for each day of the event. For more information about each session, view the event programme: https://pygyrg.org/contemporary-issues-in-participatory-geography-event-programme.

Full transcripts for the event will be available soon and will be uploaded to this page. The event organisers are currently exploring different ways to disseminate the event, including an edited video for YouTube, infographics, and a blog post. Keep an eye out for updates!
