We particularly welcome contributions that address the critical and emancipatory potential of quantitative work, or raise questions about the borders and bordering of quantitative geography.

All the participants of the session are automatically considered for the best paper QMRG Award, which will be announced at the AGM.

This session is co-organised by the QMRG and the Bristol PGR community for the occasion of the University of Bristol School of Geographical Sciences’ Centenary celebration in 2020.
