在发展问题备受全球关注、发展地理学学科地位逐渐凸显的宏观背景下, 发展地理学理论研究快速发展, 成果日益丰富, 发展地理学专业委员会应时运而生。本文首先介绍了中国地理学会发展地理学专业委员会 (以下简称专委会) 成立背景及组织状况, 回顾了专委会的成立与发展历程。然后, 文章总结了专委会在搭建学术平台、促进学术交流、推进人才培养等方面取得的一系列成果。2015年, 中国地理学会产业政策与发展地理学工作组在北京筹备成立。2019年发展地理学专业委员会被中国地理学会正式批准成立。专委会始终明确办会定位, 兼顾基础性与前沿性, 积极搭建学术平台, 创办了《发展地理学前沿》与《Journal of Development Geography》中、英文期刊, 并形成了《发展地理学导论》专著等成果; 始终坚持办会方向, 兼顾思想性与学术性, 先后举办了八次年度学术研讨会, 组织了四次大型国际/国内会议分会; 始终注重长远发展和人才培养, 通过组织教育培训、开设发展地理学课程、编写发展地理学教材等方式积极推进人才培养。展望未来, 面对艰巨的历史使命, 发展地理学专业委员会将紧紧围绕重大的科学问题, 夯实各项工作基础, 着力形成发展地理学发展方向与国家重大战略需求相匹配的研究范式, 探索区域协调、充分、可持续发展的新模式、高质量发展产业政策转型的新路径, 推进发展地理学的学科蓬勃发展。

The Development Geography Professional Committee is emerged under the macro background that much global attention is paid to development issues, the status of development geography becomes increasingly prominent, and the theory of development geography develops rapidly with increasingly rich achievements.
