IGU (International Geographical Union)

The International Geographical Union (IGU) is a global organization that promotes the study and understanding of geography—the science of Earth's landscapes, environments, and societies. It brings together geographers from around the world to share research, address global issues like climate change and urbanization, and advance geographical knowledge. The IGU organizes conferences, publishes scholarly journals, and supports geographic education and collaboration across diverse fields and cultures, fostering a deeper awareness of the Earth's physical and human phenomena on an international scale.
