Colorado Geographic Alliance: Lifting Up: How Big Data Can Help Eliminate Poverty

Friday, May 30, 2014

Colorado Geographic Alliance: The Colorado Geographic Alliance, part of a network of fifty Geographic Alliances across the country, was founded in 1989 by the National Geographic Society and geographers in Colorado. Our main objective is to provide resources and professional development for elementary and secondary school teachers, ensuring the public understands the rationale behind comprehensive geography education throughout the State of Colorado. COGA is a state-wide educator’s organization in which the collective knowledge of experienced teachers of geography is shared with others to strengthen the position of geography in all Colorado schools. Communication and programs supported by COGA develop and foster grassroots collaboration to facilitate interaction of teachers and to encourage conversations about geographic concepts across the state.
