What societal groups do you aim to positively affect and support through collaborative research?

My work engages with a collaborative art practice where I connect with the local communities, environmental experts, the arts, and policymakers (such as local authorities).

How might your involvement in engaged research support these groups?

My research aims to create communities of care, bringing together scientists, artists, local networks, and activists. It will support policymakers to make positive decisions, including action on climate change.
