[1] The programs of Can Geo Education aim to foster geographic engagement in Canada.
In addition to increasing the emphasis on geography within the school system, Can Geo Education endeavours to increase the geographic literacy of all Canadians through the formal K–12 education system.
Current and past themes have included the War of 1812, Canada from space (with the Canadian Space Agency), a circular North Pole map (with the Canadian Museum of Nature), the country's national parks (with Parks Canada), and North America's animal migrations (with the Canadian Wildlife Federation).
At school level, students answer up to 90 geography-related questions.
The student who succeeds in his school takes an online questionnaire, then can move on to provincial and national levels.
