Yesterday we had the privilege of hosting a participatory online workshop, bringing together representatives from farming/fishing communities in S. America, + other key stakeholders, giving attendees space to shape their own recommendations and contribute as co-authors to one of its final outputs.

Our paper on the de-reification of environmental land management is out today. Hurrah! The brainchild of Charles Masquelier, we use the Marxist concept of reification to help re-envision effective environmental programmes onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

Saw H is for Hawk, by @hjm.bsky.social last night. A stunning adaptation of a soulful book that reminds me of PhD working way back when. I recommend to anybody recently impacted by the death of a parent and who wants to feel less isolated in that experience. Take tissues...

A slightly more positive/constructive interpretation of the findings: www.fwi.co.uk/farm-life/su...

The first findings from our Health and Wellbeing of Women in Farming picked up by the media today: www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

(And here are a couple of pics from the pre-fieldwork week long jungle expedition to the Lost City) 😍

Recently returned from six astonishing weeks of fieldwork in Northern Colombia, examining capacity development as part of climate adaptation projects among communities vulnerable to climate change. Immensely grateful, as always, to those participants who make all of our research possible.
