Professor Gillian Rose (School of Geography and the Environment) awarded Victoria Medal in 2025 RGS-IBG honours

Congratulations to Professor Gillian Rose, awarded the Royal Geographical Society (with IBG) Victoria Medal for conspicuous merit in research in geography.

"I’m delighted to be awarded the Victoria Medal. In the current moment, as we face multiple threats to the conduct of care-full forms of human knowledge creation, it seems more important than ever to assert the importance of geographers’ skills of crafting evidence-based understandings of the world, aware of the high stakes of that work. I am truly honoured by this award’s suggestion that I have contributed in some way to that vitally important project." Professor Gillian Rose
