Responding to increasing interest in fostering diversity, equity, inclusion, and justice (DEIJ) in geography, Guo Chen and LaToya E. Eaves lead a rich volume of three parts from over 40 authors to represent cutting-edge scholarship and real-world examples from leading geographers, diverse intellectuals, and advocates from various subdisciplinary fields and interconnected world regions.

Examining the foundations of why DEIJ matters in geography, this book engages readers in historical and empirical facts and a number of epistemic interventions from Black, Latinx, Indigenous and Asian-American geographies, as well as Women of Colour, queer, trans, and disabled geographers. It also provides theory-informed, yet hands-on guidance on how to foster DEIJ across academia, through geography unit leadership, school geography, graduate students, undergraduate teaching, and mentorship for safe and inclusive fieldwork. Ultimately, this book envisions the future of geographical knowledge-making with most recent examples about how to embrace DEIJ in a wide range of fields, including mapping and geographic information systems (GIS), physical geography and environmental science, radical geography, human geography, and urban geography.



How to Foster Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Justice in Geography is an important read for students, researchers and academics in all subdisciplines of geography, across human, environmental, and physical geography, regional geography, geographic methods, and geographical education, as well as those interested in feminist geography, decolonial and anti-racist geography, and critical geography approaches. The book is also beneficial to practitioners and policymakers aiming to foster DEIJ in higher education in the social sciences, natural sciences, arts and humanities.

Edited by Guo Chen, Associate Professor of Geography and Global Urban Studies, Department of Geography, Environment, and Spatial Sciences, Michigan State University and LaToya E. Eaves, Associate Professor of Geography, Department of Geography & Sustainability, University of Tennessee, US
