Introduction
“Sustainable Development Goals for all”. EUROGEO and UNED contributes to the important UN mission,
SDG which was held on.
In 2015, the United Nations approved the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), which gave
continuity to the process initiated at the Rio Summit (1992) and the Millennium Development Goals
(MDGs) agreed in 2000. The Goals were expanded and given a deadline of 15 years (2015-2030).
The SDGs cover a wide range of social, economic and environmental aspects, both in global and
local spaces. Most of them relate to Geography.
The SDGs seek to promote a multidimensional model of development that is capable of guaranteeing
sustainability. It is a complex process of political and economic discussion, with different views, which
must be addressed by all areas of society. The final UN document has 169 partial objectives or goals and
230 indicators that allow us to assess progress towards SDGs and to compare regions and countries.
It also makes it possible to determine the ecological and social impact that each country has on
others. This process as a whole is known as the ‘2030 Agenda for sustainable development’.
The aim is to work towards sustainability, because the world is clearly currently unsustainable,
as demonstrated by scientific evidence. To achieve the SDGs, it is necessary to collaborate with
all citizens (civil society, doctors, teachers ...), and for the project to be promoted by
governments. The first priority is ‘hunger zero’, which means eradicating extreme poverty and
hunger by employing a conciliatory and cooperative approach.
EUROGEO 2021 will aim to address cross-cutting issues such as
How do geographers respond to Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)?
How do universities and companies respond?
Do technologies and open data help to achieve SDGs?
How can we understand problems and ecosocial challenges that we face in the situation of Global
Change?
Is it possible to explore ways of transforming towards the sustainability of socio-ecological systems,
using educational contexts and resources?
Conceptual frameworks and strategies that contribute to the construction of societies in which human
welfare and the care of nature are the basis.

Keynotes presentations
Opening Keynote: “Geography: Origin of the Complexity of The Food System” by Dr. Yvonne Colomer
Xena, Triptolemos, UNESCO-UNED-Fundación Triptolemos Fundation Chair “Science and Innovation for
Sustainable Development: Global Food Production and Safety.”
Geography imposes its barriers. These barriers have hindered and limited the movement of people. They
enclose it in an environment with availability and defined characteristics. In this environment you must
survive by creating your own food system. Transportation techniques have advanced slowly and have
facilitated exchanges between populations. Some of these exchanges have been fundamental in the
aspects of food. Globalization and the added effects of climate change have increased migration. New
cultural food systems have proliferated in large cities, seeking a balance between purchasing power and
satisfaction, which will coexist in certain cases with genuine aspects of traditional food identity.
6Main Keynote: “Shaping the Future of Quality Education in Geography” by Dr. Julia María González
Ferreras, President of Education for an Interdependent World, Brussels.
Which is the contribution of geographical education to tomorrow's citizens? Which is the profile of the
professional who can facilitate effective and relevant learning and is prepared to foster the sustainable
development goals, its targets and commitments? How can global citizenship and the appreciation of
cultural diversity can be further developed? Which is the road towards a relevant education reaching
beyond knowledge and skills to values and attitudes which turn into commitments, informed decisions
and are able to inspire active roles in society both at local and global level?
Since teachers are key to achieve change and will have an important role in achieving the sustainable
development goals, the talk will focus on the elements that can make a difference in the training and
motivation of professionally specialised teachers, particularly in challenged areas of the world.
Closing Keynote: SDGs in the Classroom: GIS Learning Resources and Data by Dr. Michael Gould, ESRI
and Jaume I University.
Our world suffers from serious problems-- environmental, social, economic-- that we need to work on
together. The Sustainable Development Goals provide a convenient framework to organize some of the
key problem descriptions and goals for improvement. But how can we make a concrete difference?
Fortunately, GIS software has matured to a point that its use is easier than ever, it is more accessible in
the form of WebGIS, and more geographic data is available than ever before. Multiple online resources
are described, that are freely available to classrooms (primary schools to doctoral researchers) around
the world, and which can be used to make SDGs less abstract and better connected to real problems that
students understand and are interested to work on.
Panel Sessions
22nd April 2021
1. Special session: Geography and Memory: Places of Memory and Legacies – in an Age of
Insecurities and Globalization (Panel session part I will continue in part II after lunch)
(Room A. 12:30-14:00 and 15:00-16:30)
Chair: Prof. Gerry O’Reilly, School of History and Geography, Dublin City University, Ireland
7Abstract
Papers invited for this special session on sites of memory. Regarding the UN SDGs, and
especially Goal 16 - Peace, Justice and Strong Institutions, and Goals 4 and 5 respectively, Quality
Education and Gender Equality; these are implicit in ongoing research on places of memory.
Among the papers presented is an appraisal of material from Places of Memory and Legacies in an
Age of Insecurities and Globalization (Springer, Dec. 2020) that explores sites of memory and
commemorations, anchored around WWI centennials but more particularly what this means in
their contemporary local and international environments. Perspectives span a geographical
range including Austria, Ireland, UK, Gibraltar, Turkey, Greece, Hungary, Kosovo, Bosnia, France,
Italy, Slovenia, Latvia, Israel, Syria and elsewhere. Commemorative sites act as landmarks in the
trajectories of societies and their geopolitics of emotions. Such places can reflect the good, but
also the negative dark experiences of humanity as with places of conscience and guilt (UNESCO,
EU, CoE) now embedded in the heritage, tourism and hospitality industries. These act as
reminders of the challenges faced from populism, extremism, violence, war, injustice, sexism,
imperialism and negative nationalism – in short, the antithesis of sustainable development.
Keeping in mind the socio-political malaise being experienced in Europe, the USA and elsewhere,
sites of memory provide a reminder of the contemporary defies regarding human rights and
democracy. Good governance like good citizenship must be supported by strong democratic
state institutions, including formal education and training, but also the informal education of
citizens through the creation and repositioning of perspectives in the interests of peace-building
and inclusivity. This session may include: (a) Theoretical constructs and frameworks regarding
spaces of memory, policy trajectories - UN, UNESCO, EU and national governments, and NGOs.
(b) Case study work, including the responses of researchers from different locations throughout
Europe with diverse intercultural and interdisciplinary approaches, including the grassroots and
contesting voices in their narratives.

3. Special Session: Geographical Naming as Critical Content in Geography Education
(Room A. 12:00-13:30)
Chairs: Dr. Joseph Stoltman, Western Michigan University & Dr. Nina Scholten, University of
Hamburg
Abstract
Geographical naming, also known as toponymy, has experienced a renewed interest in
geography and other disciplines. Discussions of geographical names have largely been focused
on their location aspects in the past and their representation on maps. However, geographical
names have also developed into a critical study and research topic when the question arises:
"What is in a name?" Geographical names are examined for their ethnic, cultural and emotive
elements as well as for their historical qualities and antecedents. This session is designed to
present research and pedagogical papers on geographical naming and examples of the critical
nature of naming as a topic in geography education.

Abstract
At the intersection of Digital Technology, Computer Science, and the Humanities enters a new
way of thinking. The field of Digital Humanities involves collaborative, interdisciplinary, and
digitally engaged research, writing, teaching, and publishing. So, what exactly are Digital
Humanities? What are its components? Which needs are covered? Which are its perspectives?
This session describes two issues, on the one hand the necessity of Digital Humanities and on
the other hand the opportunity to rethink the ways in which Humanists can contribute to
academic studies and to society, within a digital space, in order to redefine the social contract
upon which they depend. We believe that the Digital Humanities provide an excellent opportunity
for thoughtful and reflective analysis of the modern evolving humanities. In this session, we will
discuss how to face the double challenge of training the next generation for the potential of new
technologies and of developing new research questions and good practices in this topic.

Copernicus Seminars (23rd April 2021)
The Research and User Support for Sentinel core products (RUS) service is an initiative funded by the
European Commission and managed by ESA with the objective to promote the uptake of Copernicus
Sentinel data and support R&D activities. The service provides a free and open scalable platform in a
powerful computing environment, hosting a suite of open source toolboxes pre-installed on virtual
machines, which allow to handle and process the data derived from the Sentinel satellites. In addition,
RUS also provides a specialized user help desk to support user’s remote sensing activities with Sentinel
data and a dedicated training program (webinars and face-to-face).
9:00 - 10:30 (Room B). Deforestation mapping with Sentinel-1 and Sentinel-2
Forests cover almost a third of the world's land surface, representing one of the most important
ecosystems in our planet and a fundamental element to fight climate change. They provide
fundamental ecosystem services such as absorbing, storing and converting carbon dioxide (C02) into
oxygen or reducing the effect of erosion caused by wind and rain amongst others. Moreover, forests
create natural habitat to a large variety of flora and fauna species, hence preserving global biodiversity.
12Rapid shrinking of forest creates a major threat and increases the effects of climate change. Every year,
large forested areas are cleared out all over the world due to different driving forces and precise
monitoring of these activities is required to reduce their negative impact.
The Copernicus program, which includes a new family of earth observation satellites known as the
Sentinels, provides a unique opportunity to quickly map the ever-changing forests and provide regular
updates on their condition at a range of spatial and temporal resolutions. During this demo session,
the main processing steps required to map deforestation using Sentinel-1 and Sentinel-2 will be
shown using open source toolboxes available in the RUS Copernicus Virtual Machine.
12:00 - 13:30 (Room B). Flood mapping with Sentinel-1
Amongst the different natural hazards, floods accounts for almost half of the weather-related
disasters recorded during the last 20 years. Earth observation satellites can be used for flood mapping
and assessment (e.g. early warning systems or post-disaster mapping). The adverse weather
conditions during flooding events make Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) a suitable approach due to its
independence on weather and solar illumination.
Since the launch of Sentinel-1, a European C-band SAR satellite, routine collections of large amounts
of data with short revisit times are made freely available, enhancing the capabilities of flood response
activities. Taking advantage of the all-weather and day-and-night sensing capabilities of SAR sensors,
in this demo we will demonstrate the main SAR processing steps required to use Sentinel-1 GRD
products to map the extent of a flooded area. For this, we will make use of a variety of techniques using
the open source toolboxes available in the RUS Copernicus Virtual Machine.
It is possible to visualise in the RUS Copernicus YouTube channel other exercises with Copernicus data

Workshops (23rd April 2021)
Workshop 1. “Open Educational Resources of Geography from the National Geographic Institute”
(09:00- 10:30. (Room A)
Ana Velasco Tirado, Web Developer Manager y Celia Sevilla Sánchez, Head of International Projects. IGN-
CNIG Spain).
Abstract
The National Geographic Institute website includes an area dedicated to the educational community
called Educa IGN, containing more than 50 free and open resources to learn about geography,
cartography and Earth sciences, in general. The resources are catalogued by recommended age, type of
resource and subject, to facilitate their consultation. The resources are didactic materials, maps, videos
and games, and they are recommended for different educational levels: Primary School, Secondary
School, High School, University and degrees. In addition, the IGN and the CNIG have tools for creating,
13consulting and downloading online maps that can be used in the classroom to promote the use of ICT. In
the workshop we will go through all the resources from a practical point of view. It is recommended to
bring your own device.
Workshop 2. “Digital Devices in the Primary Geography Classroom”
16:30- 18:00. (Room A)
(Dr. Daniela Schmeinck, Universität zu Köln, UzK)
Abstract
Access to digital technology and the Internet is having a decisive impact on all levels: personal, family,
professional and social. However, it must be critically noted that so far the rapid influence of the media
has not been accompanied by an appropriate promotion of media literacy in schools. Although a critical
competence in media consumption seems more important nowadays than ever before, in most primary
schools (and also in many secondary schools) one looks in vain for specific lessons or appropriate
teaching concepts. The workshop shows how the use of digital devices in the classroom can both
contribute to the development of a high level of digital literacy and offer new innovative ways for
teaching Geography in Primary school.
