Panel Announcement: Mapping Regional Divides in Energy and Food Futures
Benelux Geography Conference 2026 — Leuven, 8–10 April 2026

This panel explores how visualising and interpreting spatial imaginaries can enhance our understanding of regionalism and the rejection of socio-ecological transitions. In an era of intensifying regional polarisation, geography’s capacity to make visible moral, material, and affective geographies is increasingly crucial. Communities’ responses to transitions in energy and food systems reveal contested visions of sustainability, sovereignty, and belonging. Mapping these imaginaries exposes the regional dynamics that underpin cohesion, exclusion, and resistance across the Benelux.

For the Annual Conference in Atlanta, April 8-11, 2026, PCA will be piloting poster sessions.  Poster sessions allow scholars to share their research and ideas in a less formal setting compared to traditional presentations while still being part of the program.  

If the proposal is accepted, presenters should create a poster presentation that visually summarizes their topic, highlighting such things as their main argument, their research methods, and overall conclusions.

Poster sessions will be scheduled in a four hour block (8 a.m. - 12 p.m. or 1 p.m. - 5 p.m.).  Presenters should be ready to set up and take down at those times and will need to schedule a 90 minute block in which to be with their posters.
