The Society mirrors the world and all that is in it through incisive magazines, maps, books, films and interactive media. Through National Geographic Live!, the Society's program of speakers, films and performances, National Geographic explorers, scientists, adventurers and photographers share their stories at the Society's Washington, D.C., headquarters and in other U.S. cities.
