It is great to hear that Anthology is still talking in serious terms about climate change.

For the sake of humanity, I hope not. #DurBBU

One that is important, however, is this:

It is time for Government to step in with actions, not just words, to make HE sustainable.

A6.

We already do. We exist, intersect & collaborate and have been doing so before there was a discernable 'third space'.

The challenge is how do we recognise these disciplines in a way which allows them to be defined by themselves, rather than recognised the 'spaces' they sit between
