What does #research #impact mean to you?

An ongoing project is exploring how human #geographers in the UK understand & practice diverse types of research impact. Share your views by completing a 5-min survey: app.onlinesurveys.jisc.ac.uk/s/oxford/div... #academicsky #geography @jonnyjjt.bsky.social

Rewilding has become established as a new mode of nature conservation. Until recently, cities and the urban were neglected by rewilding discourse; the idea of urban rewilding seen as oxymoronic.

🏙️🦫 How is #rewilding refracted by urban space? 🌲🌆

Our new paper in Transactions of the @rgsibg.bsky.social explores this question in relation to the urban fabric, politics, and aesthetics, with Tom Fry and @jlorimer.bsky.social.

🌐 Check out this new blog by @caitlinhafferty.bsky.social, @jonnyjjt.bsky.social & Noemi Duroux where they reflect on the Digital Dimensions of Nature Recovery conference held at the Digital Hub at Jesus College, Oxford in November last year

🤖🌳🚀 New blog post on our transdisciplinary Digital Dimensions of Nature Recovery conference, which brought together diverse voices to question the tensions between utopian innovation & complex power dynamics at the interface between policy and practice.

🎉Caitlin has won an OPEN Fellowship to explore how risk affects high-integrity carbon & nature markets, & is partnering with DESNZ & Defra to provide evidence-led advice for the Nature Markets Framework, which sets out the gvt’s vision to boost investment in nature recovery. @ecioxford.bsky.social

Great presentation by @caitlinhafferty.bsky.social her paper Unpacking the Politics of Nature-based Solutions Governance: Making space for transformative change. NbS address biodiversity issues, but we must examine power, politics, & democratic processes behind their implementation for real change.

🌍 Just published: "Knowledge brokers at the interface of environmental science and policy: A review of knowledge and research needs."

We explore how KBs build capacity for evidence-informed decision-making & shine a light on the often 'invisible' work they do.

Great piece in Nature Climate on the importance of recognising the long history of research on #justice in climate research - www.nature.com/articles/s41...

This points to broader issues in the field where decades of critical #socialscience and #humanities research is overlooked and obscured

I'm delighted to have a co-authored chapter (with Bill Adams & Emma Tait) in this fantastic new book. Congrats to the whole @digicologies.bsky.social team for taking the lead on theorising digitally-mediated human–nonhuman entanglements. This field is going to be a wild ride over the coming years...

🌐 Digital ecologies: Mediating more-than-human worlds is OUT NOW with @manchesterup.bsky.social!

We would be grateful if any #geographers could fill out our 5-minute survey on diverse types of #ResearchImpact!

We are interested in hearing from anyone with an opinion about the #impact agenda and how it influences geographical research.

🔗 app.onlinesurveys.jisc.ac.uk/s/oxford/diver… @jonnyjjt

Human-nature connections must be at the heart of transformations to tackle the #biodiversity and #climate crisis.

But how can we achieve this in a way that is integrated, collaborative, and delivers real-world impact?

Join our panel *tomorrow* to hear from #SocialScience experts!
