Abstract
Geography research and teaching have a long history in South Africa, and Geographers are well placed to engage with issues affecting South Africa in the twenty-first century, including climate change, resource scarcity, poverty reduction and sustainable development. Although different research topics have been investigated previously, others represent some new areas of departure for research in physical and/or human geography, and opportunities for future research growth in South Africa. This chapter identifies and discusses the significance of some of these new topic areas for South African Geography, and the application of such research to address twenty-first century local to global issues.
