Happy Global Surveyors' Day
21 March 2023
Global Surveyors’ Day is a way to globally recognize the
ground-breakers, pioneers, individuals and the industry that has shaped
our history and continues to be the foundation of our communities.
How will you be celebrating the Global Surveyors' Day?
It is the hope that this day is being celebrated around the world. It
can be celebrated in many different ways, and it is up to the national
surveyors to find their best way to celebrate the day.
FIG wishes all the best for all these events and activities, hoping
that this will help emphasise the many contributions by surveyors and
the surveying profession in all aspects of life.
If you are celebrating this day or have organised activities for the
promotion of the work of the surveyors in your country or region, we
encourage you to submit and share your Global Surveyors Day
activities at surveyorsday.com
and to upload photos to the FIG Facebook page:

You can also send photos and a short description to FIG: fig@fig.net
