The Organising Committee is committed to ensuring the 7th International Geomorphology Conference is the best in its history and that the Conference is promoted as widely as possible. A detailed marketing plan has been developed incorporating promotion at other conferences, journal advertising / editorial, targeting affiliate associations and of course our own network.

One aspect of the strategy is the development of an ambassador program, which aims to secure the support of eminent industry members to increase the attendance of international and national delegates at the conference and raise sponsorship and exhibition revenue. This role is a vital one for the success of the Conference and we are very pleased to have 9 international ambassadors on board.

If you would like to be involved in our ambassador program please email geomorphology2009@tourhosts.com.au or call +61 2 9265 0700.
