Journalistic storytelling
The team at Canadian Geographic intrinsically understands the connection between people and place and the elemental intersection of both human and physical geography. Canadian Geographic is dedicated to uncovering and communicating stories about Canadian people, places, and issues that Canadian magazine readers want to learn more about. Editorial content is researched, reported and written by journalists and presented in a variety of formats, including long- and short-form articles, photographic essays, story maps, podcasts, videos, and other print and digital publications. The writing comes to visual life through stunning photography, original cartography and elegant art direction.
Cartography
Cartography is a pillar of our work at Canadian Geographic and the Royal Canadian Geographical Society. Our maps take many forms, from hand-drawn illustrations to rich digital interactives, simple locator maps to posters and even gymnasium-sized Giant Floor Maps, as well as specialized educational resources such as “tiled” maps designed for teachers to download, print and assemble with students. Through our cartography, we strive to relay crucial information about Canadian history, wildlife, natural formations, boundaries and society — but most importantly, about how we fit into it all. Dedicated cartographic assets provide a remarkably easy, novel and impactful way to convey your messaging and data to diverse audiences.
Educational resources
Canadian Geographic Education is the educational program of the Royal Canadian Geographical Society. Canadian Geographic Education builds and distributes educational resources to help improve students’ understanding of the world they live in and the role youth can play in creating a sustainable future. Geographically literate students are better prepared to face global challenges and have the skills necessary to become effective change agents. Canadian Geographic Basecamp Partners support the development of curriculum-linked resources on topics relating to human and physical geography, engaging students and educators from coast to coast to coast.
Videography & film
For nearly a century, Canadian Geographic has been dedicated to making Canada better known to Canadians and to the world, primarily through its award-winning magazine. As our country undergoes significant changes to its population, climate, environment, economy and culture, Canadian Geographic Films is leading a digital transformation to support a greater understanding of Canada’s geography — the diverse human and physical landscape — as well as the changes affecting its people and the environment.
Podcasting
Audio storytelling supports extended learning and knowledge sharing on the go, and to a growing audience. Canadian Geographic offers our collaborators full production and storyline development, hosting, distribution and promotion as well as podcasting labs.
Print & digital engagement
Canadian Geographic interacts with and services both national and international audiences through strong digital engagement, capturing 4.2M content readers on a monthly basis. Canadian Geographic delivers an audience that is increasingly sophisticated, culturally diverse, engaged, educated and invested in empowering the next generation of Canadians to lead in a variety of fields. Canadian Geographic is also an important resource for an increasing number of new Canadians. Equipped with robust social media platforms and digital engagement tactics, partnership projects with Canadian Geographic are presented to an audience that is primed to engage.
Media & digital advertising
Canadian Geographic gives Canadians a deeper knowledge of their country — its people and places, its natural and cultural heritage and its environmental, social and economic opportunities. With Can Geo, our partners reach one of the largest dual audiences in Canada — readers who are early influencers and discriminating decision-makers. Can Geo’s online readers are engaged, informed and passionate about our planet. They visit our website for the latest news and in-depth features reporting on wildlife conservation, climate and ocean health and clean technology, as well as perspectives from leading and emerging changemakers. CanGeo.ca celebrates the beauty and geographical diversity of Canada through digital photo essays and interactive maps.
Project management
A proven, efficient and seamless delivery relies on exceptional attention to detail and consistent project management. The Canadian Geographic operations team excels in their capacity to collaborate, invigorate, and keep all interdepartmental and partnership deliverables on task for optimal results.
