This session invites critical geographers to explore Islam and geography through critical pedagogy in deep and meaningful ways with the rich influential and intellectual traditions it encompasses. It will provide an opportunity to learn about Critical Muslim Geographies to better understand Muslim geography students and teachers. Based on the recently published paper 'Critical pedagogical engagement with Muslim geographies' (Sammar, 2024 - https://doi.org/10.1177/20438206241289).
