Tyumen Regional Department

The year of foundation of the Tyumen regional branch of the Russian Geographical Society can be considered 1958. Its appearance was due to the need for a more detailed study of the geography of the Tyumen region. The regional Museum of Local Lore became the initial base, and later the Tyumen State Pedagogical Institute, the Tyumen Research Institute of Regional Pathology and the regional Tourism Council. In May 2010, it was decided to create the Tyumen regional branch.

Currently, the Tyumen Regional Department has organized sections on hydrology and climatology, cartography, local history and tourism, socio-economic geography and environmental management, physical geography, ecology of biodiversity and environmental education.
