《高等教育地理學雜志》(JGHE)的創辦基于這樣一種信念，即學習和教學的發展對高等教育至關重要。它致力于促進、加強和分享全球所有高等教育機構的地理學習和教學，并為地理學家和其他專業人士提供一個論壇，討論共同的教育興趣，展示教育研究成果，倡導新思想。

The Journal of Geography in Higher Education ( JGHE) was founded upon the conviction that the development of learning and teaching was vitally important to higher education. It is committed to promote, enhance and share geography learning and teaching in all institutions of higher education throughout the world, and provides a forum for geographers and others, regardless of their specialisms, to discuss common educational interests, to present the results of educational research, and to advocate new ideas.
