Conference on Participatory Environmental Education looks like a good place to present our study on the role of social learning and innovation in community climate action:

Found this (not-so) little fellow in our garden after returning from a community gardening fieldwork in Asia.

I’ve seen many in #Korea, but not that common in #Slovenia. Yet.

More community gardening fieldwork in #Korea. Last week in heavy rain; this time sweating on 36C.🥵

Huimang Community Garden in #Incheon is another good example of how urban agriculture can sustain community capacity building.

Getting “pants dirty” after heavy rain (apparently essential for doing ethnographic field work).

Happy to be back at the #Ieum community garden in #Songdo.

Claiming ownership of streets as walkable, temporary, communal space can empower communities to collectively reshape their neighbourhoods. Reclaiming streets is essential to build resilient cities.

Understanding practices, policies and meanings of community building is vital for building resilient neighbourhoods and cities. What research methodologies help us study community building?

Long ago, I visited Haengdang-dong by chance. Had no idea of community struggles that shaped the neighbourhood. Their legacies are as important today as they were two decades ago:

The uptake of research in society is important aim of CASIE.

Wonderful to see the interest of Ieum Community Garden activists in translating the study on urban gardening and collective action into Korean:

Fieldwork in #Singapore is coming to an end. Meanwhile, its focus on social innovation and resilient communities has shifted to community gardening. Why?
