We Are All Explorers is the theme of the III Geography Week Fair, an educational activity that will show visitors how geography provides us an opportunity to be intrepid explorers in our own path.

Students, teachers, parents, and the general public will have a space to learn about Geographical Sciences on April 23-24 in the Sambil Events Room. This will allow them to better interpret the message of the environment in which we live.
