This is the official YouTube channel for the Royal Geographical Society of South Australia (Inc.), a voluntary, community-based learned society for geography, geographers, and those interested in geography.
Founded in 1885, we are South Australia's centre for geography: supporting research, education, expeditions and fieldwork, and promoting public engagement and informed enjoyment of our world. The Society is home to one of the most significant collections of rare geographical books and manuscripts in the Southern Hemisphere.
