      We invite submissions from all areas of geographic scholarship to WDCAG 2021, themed Beyond 2020: Geographical Research During Crises. 2020's global pandemic, political unrest, social movements, climate change, and economic downturns have forced us to rethink the world we live in. Geographers have engaged with these opportunities and challenges before. What does moving beyond 2020 mean for geographical research?
