Translations available in: English (original) | French | Spanish | Italian | German | Portuguese | Swedish | Russian | Dutch | Arabic

With enthusiasm and pleasure, we are inviting you to join us in celebrating an international

event which will be participated in by renowned academics, entrepreneurs, researchers,

educators, college students, government officials, volunteers of non-government institutions,

and members of advocacy groups in Southeast Asia and other parts of the world. This is the

2008 Southeast Asian Geographers Association International Conference. The SEAGA 2008

will be held in the SEAMEO Innotech on June 3-6, 2008. It is being organized by the Philippine

Geographical Society, together with the Department of Geography of the University of the

Philippines-Diliman and the Southeast Asian Geography Association (SEAGA).



SEAGA 2008 is paving the way for an international gathering of Southeast Asian scholars and

practitioners from the field. The SEAGA 2008 International Conference will bring together

scholars, businessmen and women, social science researchers, college professors, high school

teachers, students from various universities, and representatives from government and non-

government institutions, advocacy groups, and other organizations of diverse political and

cultural backgrounds in Southeast Asia. The SEAGA members believe in the importance of

exchanging and sharing of knowledge and experiences among scholars and field practitioners.

This is crucial in addressing the many pressing issues that are brought about by the political

events, economic concerns, environmental problems and other social issues that simultaneously

affect the diverse population groups of Myanmar, Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Vietnam, Laos,

Cambodia, Brunei, East Timor, Indonesia, and the Philippines. Past SEAGA conferences were

held in the following venues:Universiti Brunei Darussalam, Brunei Darussalam (1990)



University of Jogjakarta, Indonesia (1992)
University of Malaya, Malaysia (1994)
Chiang Mai University, Thailand (1996)
National Institute of Education/NUS, Singapore (1998)
Universiti Bangsaan Malaysia, Malaysia (2001)
Khon Kaen University, Thailand (2004)
National Institute of Education, Singapore (2006)


The Philippines is finally hosting this distinguished event in June 2008. We are expecting the

participation of over 200 individuals from different countries across the globe. We recognize that

your institution maintains a tradition of supporting events that allow spaces for discussions of

pressing problems that affect local population groups in the Philippines and in other countries as

well. We share the goal of arriving at workable solutions to effect changes that may lead to the

improvement of life conditions of many population groups not only in our country but in other

places in Southeast Asia. In connection with this, we are delighted to invite you to participate

in this four-day conference. Your presence will greatly helping in the facilitation of exchanges of

experiences among scholars and other stakeholders to address similar environmental, economic,

political, and socio-cultural concerns that affect the nations of the Southeast Asian Region.
