South African Geographical Journal is the official journal of the Society of South African Geographers.
The Society of South African Geographers' main objective is to advance the research and educational activities of all South African geographers by:
- collectively representing the interests of South African geographers regionally, nationally and internationally
- encouraging and supporting high quality research and teaching in Geography
- providing a national geographic information resource for geographers and interested groups
- stimulating awareness of geographic and environmental matters through academic collaboration with other intellectual communities and accountable interaction with the public at large.
The society achieves these objectives by publishing and effectively disseminating scholarly research results in The South African Geographical Journal and other occasional publications, through the organization of prestige lectures, by encouraging regional and special interest group activities, through its organizing a biennial scientific meeting and by performing sundry other services such as representing geographers on various official Department of Education subject groups.
