Oxford Geoheritage Virtual Conference

On behalf of the Organising Committee, we are pleased to invite you to take part in the Oxford Geoheritage Virtual Conference, to be hosted online,  March 10-12, 2025. There is no charge to attend or submit an abstract at OxGVC - all you need is a suitable internet connection.

This conference is open to all who are interested in geoheritage, including scientists, students, professionals, policy-makers, and managers. We welcome contributions from all fields of geoheritage including geoconservation, management, classification, geodiversity, legislation, geoparks, geotourism, geoheritage and cultural heritage, and interpretation. Geoheritage is an inherently interdisciplinary field: we also encourage those from affiliated fields who have something to contribute to attend and submit an abstract.

An Online Conference Open to All

Following the success of OxGVC 2020, and OxGVC 2022, we are returning for 2025. Our last meeting attracted more than 500 delegates from over 70 different countries. The conference aims to be an easily accessible place to share new and developing ideas in geoheritage, bringing together our international community for 3 days of exciting discussions.

The meeting is timed to maximise global participation. All talks, flash talks, and keynotes will take place in sessions between 2pm and 5pm UK time (this is British Summer Time, GMT, UTC). 

We also hope to host a number of online social events for delegates to join.
