Tunisia, August 25-29, 2008
IGC International Geographical Congress
"Collaboratively Building our Territories"

This Congress will be held in Tunis, tentatively from 25-29 August 2008. Its theme will be Collaboratively Building our Territories (Construire ensemble nos territoires). Pre-congress excursions will take place from 18 to 23 August, and post-congress excursions from 30 August through 10 September. Some adjustment in dates may be needed to avoid having congress events overlap Ramadan. The proposed congress structure follows the traditional IGU pattern, with plenary sessions, paper sessions, technical and poster sessions, an exposition, and social programs for registrants and for accompanying persons. The organising body is the Comité National d'Organisation du Congrès de Tunis 2008 (CNOC 2008). The web site of the Congress is under construction. At the present time, information and materials may be found on the web site of the Association des Géographes Tunisiens
