Recent research activity, writing and presentations have emerged through engagement with design futures (in the realm of education). I am part of the Disparate Cultures and World Viewpoints workgroup—part of the Future of Design Education initiative. I have also presented and published through the Futures of Design Education SIG within the Design Research Society. Ideas explored through these initiatives relate to pluriversality, ontological design, land-based pedagogy, and participatory methods for community-based work.
