Defended and discussed my PhD thesis on local ecological knowledge and environmental education with children in the Galápagos Islands through the @education.ox.ac.uk! Thank you to my examiners, @liamguilfoyle.bsky.social and Diego Román, and supervisors @steveputtick.bsky.social and Ann Childs!

Had such a wonderful time sharing part of my doctoral research at the @beranews.bsky.social conference again this year - this time focusing on the incredible stories that kids in Galapagos shared with me about peer to peer learning for and about environmental topics - including knowledge snowballs!

On the way to the @beranews.bsky.social BERA 2025 conference at the University of Sussex! Looking forward to learning from other education researchers, and presenting part of my doctoral work tomorrow at 16:30 along with other 'Climate and sustainability education' researchers! #BERA2025

Sharing an absolutely incredible opportunity for upper secondary/high school and community college natural science teachers! Apply for the chance to take part in a seminar to the Galápagos Islands with remarkable @stanforduniversity.bsky.social professor, Bill Durham! clas.stanford.edu/galapagos2026

Work being done to support access to secondhand purchasing - important for both environmentally sustainable and financially accessible lives!

Breaking free of the dangerous pretence that current efforts suffice demands a fundamental rethink of the UK’s climate policy consensus.

After nearly four years of work and research, I submitted my doctoral thesis this June after working with so many incredible Galapagos kids! One big step closer to defending and completing the PhD/DPhil in @education.ox.ac.uk! To work that centres children, communities, and ecocentric sustainability
