My name is Claire Hay and I assumed the role of WDCAG President at our last AGM in Victoria in March 2019. The WDCAG and its annual meetings have been a part of my geographic identity since 1996 when I attended my first meeting at UNBC. I was a new MSc student at UAlberta and I was presenting my honours research at my very first conference where I was the last speaker of the day. I was terrified but excited. That experience has stuck with me; the WDCAG provides students of all levels the opportunity to try out the conference-thing, gain experience, receive feedback on their ideas and network with geographers from a myriad of sub-disciplines and fields. The CAG (our national organization) served much the same purpose while promoting the discipline of geography in Canada. I encourage all of you to support the WDCAG and CAG through membership, attendance at regional and national meetings and supporting students in their geographic adventures. -
