In order to provide better services to the members of Geographical Society of China （GSC） and geographers and engineers in China, and improve GSC＇s ability in hosting comprehensive aca- demic conferences, with the support of China Association for Science and Technology （CAST）, GSC established 7 regional divisions, representing different regions of China. The 7 regional divisions are： Northern China Division, Northwest China Division, Northeast China Division, Southwest China Division, Central China Division, Southern China Division and Eastern China Division. The regional divisions promote the objectives of GSC through regional conferences and activities in their respective regions. The purpose is to build platforms extensively for aca- demic exchange between geographers; collaborate with local geographical societies and integrate local resources; and unite all the regional academic organizations. GSC hosts the comprehensive national academic conference biannually. Instead of hosting annual national conferences, GSC organizes regional academic conferences. In 2015, 6 regional conferences have been successfully organized by the regional divisions in their regions.
